MLB Power Rankings: Week 23

Here is my weekly look at MLB Power Rankings from across the interwebs. This is just the top ten, you can view the full rankings by clicking on the links on the top of the chart below.

The Yankees remain the unanimous no. 1, with the Angels, Dodgers and Cardinals battling for rest of the top three. Boston's highest rank is 4th in the CBS rankings, They rank 5, 5, and 6 in the other polls. The Rays have fallen off the list, likely for good.

I think that it is correct for the rangers to be 9th instead of 7th. Because they are doing pretty well but not as well as like the tigers or rockies

In the FOX rankings? IDK, the Rangers have a better record than the Tigers. It's a tough.

That's all very good and well but I want to see them winning games in October. Till then, I'm keeping my feet on the ground.

How does a fan's confidence effect a team's play? Why keep your feet on the ground?

There is no reason not to be confident in this group. This is not the 2004-2008 Yankees. This team finally has a good bullpen and solid starting pitching, which those teams did not.

I'm doing it for my own well being!
