MLB Power Rankings: 16-20

10-9. Last Week: 21. Seattle Mariners . 20. player. 62. Swept the Angels and Indians in the past week and seem to be heading in the right direction. <a href=

Colorado Rockies . 19. player. 108. Not the greatest week coming off a big series win against the Cubs however this is a dangerous team, especially at home. Their pitching staff of mostly no-names has been better than expected and <a href=. 9-10. Last Week: 20

player. 96. <a href=. 10-10. Last Week: 19. Oakland Athletics . 18

17. player. 63. I hate to have to drop a team 10 spots in the rankings, but the Tigers are coming off a terrible week dropping 5 of their 6 games. We knew pitching might be a concern comingg into the season, but its been the hitting that really has been terrible so far with the exception of a few players. If you look at team averages, the Tigers are up near the top of the league. However, they haven’t been able to get big hits when they need them and dropped to under .500 for the first time this year.. 9-9. Last Week: 7. Detroit Tigers

8. The Diamondbacks continue to be in a holding pattern while they wait for AJ Pollock to return. Sweeping the always pesky Giants on the road shows how much strength this team has despite not having one of their best players in their lineup. This team will be one to watch out for in the second half and is still dangerous now.. 11-10. Last Week: 18. Arizona Diamondbacks . 16. player
