2025 MLB Power Rankings

2025 MLB Power Rankings

The 2025 MLB power rankings are here.  Who’s the best, who’s the worst, and who occupies that big, meaty middle?

The rankings below will be updated throughout the 2025 regular season.  Try not to take these too seriously.  This is just a sports website, okay?

Before We Begin

All 30 teams are ranked below, in three tiers.  The defending champions are the Los Angeles Dodgers.

These power rankings were last updated on July 4, 2025.

2025 MLB Power Rankings: Top 10

2025 MLB Power Rankings, July 4 - green background representing top tier - teams 1-10 - LA Dodgers 1, Detroit 2, Chi Cubs 3, Houston 4, Philadelphia 5, Toronto 6, NY Mets 7, Tampa Bay 8, Milwaukee 9, NY Yankees 10

The Dodgers are back on top of the power rankings after a good week moved them in front of Detroit for the best record in baseball. Los Angeles is on pace for 103 wins this season, which might not meet their high preseason over/under mark, but it’s still very good.

Toronto surged into the top ten with a four-game sweep of the Yankees in Canada. As for the Bronx Bombers, their recent play does not justify a spot in the top ten, but their record does. They were very close to dropping into the middle tier, and they may yet do so.

2025 MLB Power Rankings: Middle 10

2025 MLB Power Rankings, July 4 - yellow background representing middle tier - teams 11-20 - San Diego 11, St. Louis 12, San Francisco 13, Cincinnati 14, Seattle 15, LA Angels 16, Texas 17, Arizona 18, Boston 19, Minnesota 20

Only 5.5 standings games separates the 10 teams in this middle tier. That’s how you know we’ve stumbled upon group mediocrity.

The big movers in this set this week are Seattle, who continue their rollercoaster season by putting together an OK week, but more importantly, staying ahead of other teams who might be faltering. Arizona and Cleveland certainly fit that description, and the latter was ejected from the middle tier as a result.

2025 MLB Power Rankings: Bottom 10

2025 MLB Power Rankings, July 4 - red background representing bottom tier - teams 21-30 - Cleveland 21, Kansas City 22, Miami 23, Pittsburgh 24, Atlanta 25, Baltimore 26, Washington 27, Athletics 28, Chi White Sox 29, Colorado 30

To everyone’s surprise, the teams in the bottom tier with the greatest upwards trajectories are Miami and Pittsburgh. At least for this week, anyway.

Meanwhile, Atlanta and Baltimore, two teams that most expected to be playoff contenders in 2025, continue their torment in the 9th circle of baseball Hell.

Next power rankings release: July 11, 2025
