2. Indians (11-4 +1) The Tribe have been HOT as can be, and now get their franchise player back in the lineup in Grady Sizemore, who homered in his first game back.
3. Phillies (10-4 -1) The big 4 in the starting rotation have a combined 7-2 record through 3 weeks, and are still playing tough without Utley. The East looks like it belongs to Philly.
4. Angels (10-5 +7) The Halos have been surging, winning five straight games due to great Team hitting, and the excellent starting pitching by Haren and Weaver.
5. Reds (9-6 even) The Red legs may have the National League's most potent lineup, Joey Votto has been unconscious with a .444 average.
6. Rangers (10-5 -5) Lost some tough ones in New York, and lost something even more important than games this week....they lost Josh Hamilton for a month plus.
7. Royals (10-5 +2) In the upside down Central, the Royals remain to hang around. Not sure how its happening,
8. Yankees (9-5 even) Teixeria has cooled slightly, but ARod and Cano are off to solid starts. This lineup is just unfair sometimes.
9. Giants (8-7 +13) The Giants offense is starting to pickup, had a nice 4 game winning streak going during the week.
10. Marlins (8-6 +2) The young Fish have been winning without Hanley Ramirez contributing, they'll be even higher once he gets hot.
11. Nationals (8-7 +5) Swept Milwaukee and got some solid pitching outings, Nats are doing alright so far.
12. A's (8-8 +7) Lead the league in team ERA, with Hamilton out the A's can make some moves up the standings
13. Cardinals (8-8 +13) Best offense in Baseball and Albert Pujols was in a slump, Scary.
14. Blue Jays (7-8 -1) The Jays are in the Top 10 of Team ERA and Team Runs scored, guess thats why they are in 2nd place.
15. Brewers (7-8 -1) They are getting nothing outside of Braun and Fielder, yet still hanging around.
16. White Sox (7-8 -9) The Sox's offense has been potent, but it isn't translating into W's
17. Padres (7-8 +3) Offense is towards the bottom of the league, pitching is near the top...
18. Orioles (6-8 -12) The O's stock is falling fast,and they may not be able to land on their feet.
19. Pirates (7-8 -4) Bucs were supposed to have a good offense, and bad pitching...it has been the opposite
20. Dodgers (7-9 -10) 23rd in the league in runs as a team, that needs to pick up if they want to contend with the Rockies
21. Braves (7-9 even) Chipper is having a revival, Heyward is having a slump...Think what they could be if both are hitting at the same time.
22. Cubs (7-8 -4) Starlin Castro is batting .418! The kid is for real, and Soriano looks to be out of his 2-3 year slump
23. Tigers (7-9 +2) Miguel Cabrera hasn't been at all affected by his own offseason troubles, now whose going to help him?
24. Diamondbacks (6-8 even) The Snakes offense has been surprisingly good led by Justin Upton
25. Rays (6-9 +4) Tampa went 5-1 this week, and lost Manny Ramirez rather quietly.
26. Mets (5-11 -9) a 1-6 week will earn a -9 in the rankings. The Mets need some offense in a bad way.
27. Twins (5-10 -5) Overshadowed by the Boston struggles, Minnesota's early season woes are alarming.
28. Astros (5-11 +2) They only have 1 guy batting over .300, and for early season stats....thats bad.
29. Red Sox (4-10 -2) Showed signs of life this week, but still hold the worst record in the MLB
30. Mariners (5-11 -3) Currently hold the worst run differential in the Majors, and I don't see the offense magically getting better anytime soon.
Really damn early Cy Young picks-AL- Dan Haren NL- Roy Halladay
Really damn early MVP picks-AL-Adrian Beltre NL-Prince Fielder
