Tigers Remain Atop MLB Power Rankings After Week 10

NEW YORK, NY — The Detroit Tigers have taken back the No. 1 spot in the latest MLB Power Rankings, remaining strong in their performance as of June 5, 2025.

With a record of 41-22, the Tigers are joined in the top 10 by the Chicago Cubs, New York Yankees, and New York Mets, all competing fiercely in the league. This week’s rankings reflect significant changes, especially for teams like the Philadelphia Phillies, who recently slid down the list after being swept by the Milwaukee Brewers.

Detroit’s starting pitcher has bounced back from a rough patch, lowering his ERA significantly over his last four games. He looks to regain the form he had in early 2024, contributing to the team’s success. The Cubs, currently ranked second, continue to perform well despite injuries to key players.

The Los Angeles Dodgers, ranked fifth, are still clinging to a playoff spot, thanks in part to the impressive performance of Max Muncy, who has been one of the hottest hitters in baseball. His productivity in recent matches has been pivotal for the Dodgers.

Also noteworthy, the Houston Astros have returned to the top of the AL West, overcoming injuries and showcasing the solid play of shortstop Jeremy Peña, who has established himself as a top player. Meanwhile, the Milwaukee Brewers have emerged as one of baseball’s hottest teams after winning eight consecutive games.

As teams prepare for the trade deadline, the Baltimore Orioles are gaining momentum, as their recent performances suggest they might alter their plans if they remain competitive. On the other end of the spectrum, the Oakland Athletics are struggling, suffering through a significant downturn that has seen them win just two out of their last 22 games.

This changing landscape of the MLB is indicative of the rollercoaster nature of the baseball season, with teams experiencing highs and lows as they navigate through the weekly grind.
