Larry Stone's MLB power rankings
DELETE
Last week's ranking in parentheses
| Team | ||
| 1 | Yankees (1) | Yankees so hot, they're getting walkoff wins on the road |
| 2 | Angels (3) | Not true that Torii Hunter is doing his minor-league rehab in the Two-I League |
| 3 | Philadelphia (2) | If Brad Lidge keeps struggling, maybe Moyer can close |
| 4 | Dodgers (4) | Fox's dream World Series matchup: Joe Torre's Dodgers against the Yankees |
| 5 | Boston (5) | Youkilis has a strong arm and good range — and that's just with his helmet |
| 6 | Texas (8) | In blowing Friday's lead, the Rangers left their heartache in Frank Francisco |
| 7 | St. Louis (10) | Where's Tom Pagnozzi when you really need him? |
| 8 | Colorado (11) | Rockies call up Adam Eaton; can Sidney Ponson be far behind? |
| 9 | San Francisco (7) | The scouts were right — Lincecum is too small ... to hold all his Cy Young trophies |
| 10 | Detroit (12) | Rick Porcello just another rookie regressing to the mean-spirited |
| 11 | Florida (15) | Chris Coghlan is Rookie of Year candidate ... and if you've heard of him, kudos |
| 12 | Tampa Bay (6) | True story: Rays part owners of Florida Tuskers of new United Football League |
| 13 | Atlanta (16) | Thanks to McLouth and McCann, Braves have a McChance |
| 14 | Seattle (14) | Beltre stars in a new horror classic: "Cupless in Seattle" |
| 15 | Cubs (9) | Aaron Heilman will go into Hall of Fame wearing a Mariners hat |
| 16 | White Sox (13) | Kenny Williams rolls the dice, agrees to take over the $11 trillion national debt |
| 17 | Milwaukee (17) | New pitching coach Chris Bosio demands shortstop must make all plays barehanded |
| 18 | Minnesota (18) | The best race in September won't be Yankees-Red Sox; try Mauer-Ichiro |
| 19 | Houston (19) | Wandy Rodriguez might be the best pitcher nobody knows |
| 20 | Toronto (21) | Rios gone, but no one will take Vernon Wells' contract off their hands |
| 21 | Mets (22) | Mets players growing beards 'til team hits .500. They'll look like ZZ Top by October |
| 22 | Cincinnati (23) | Bronson Arroyo voted "Man of the Year" by GNC |
| 23 | Oakland (24) | Jack struggling at .228. Are we headed for Cust's Last Stand? |
| 24 | Arizona (20) | Mark Reynolds still on that nifty 50-homer, 220-strikeout pace |
| 25 | Cleveland (25) | Good news for Indians: They won't have a Cy Young winner to trade next year |
| 26 | San Diego (26) | Not good when your "Murderer's Row" includes David Eckstein |
| 27 | Baltimore (27) | Was anything wrong with Bedard's shoulder when they traded him? Frayed knot |
| 28 | Pittsburgh (28) | Cash for clunkers? Sounds like Pirates' free-agent philosophy |
| 29 | Washington (30) | "Rigglemania" is overtaking the nation's capital |
| 30 | Kansas City (29) | Bryce Harper thinking one more year of high school might not be so bad after all |
