Week 2 MLB Power Rankings: 6-10

5-6. Last Week: 5. New York Mets . 10. player. 3. Being only two weeks in its not really a time to hit the panic button quite yet. The Phillies and Braves are on the docket in the coming week which is a good time for them to get back on the winning track. <a href=

5-8. Last Week: 6. Houston Astros . 9. player. 135. The Astros are in a similar position as the Mets. Its probably too early to sound an alarm, but so far they don’t look like the team many expected coming into this season. They did battle back and took 2 out of 3 against a really good Detroit club that could give them some positive momentum. <a href=

The Cardinal bats have been red hot to start the year scoring double digit runs in 4 games already. Its amazing how management continues to find players as Randall Grichuk and <a href=. 7-5. Last Week: 12. St. Louis Cardinals . 8. player. 32

63. Continue to move in the right direction as taking three out of four from a good Pittsburgh team is a very positive sign. There are still some concerns with the pitching staff and bullpen, but the offense has been there. Great start following last year’s disapointment.. 7-4. Last Week: 10. Detroit Tigers . 7. player

Pittsburgh Pirates . 6. player. 4. Struggled against the Tigers but still boast a really strong lineup top to bottom and will be a team that beats up on lesser opponents. <a href=. 7-6. Last Week: 3
