25. team. 76. The Brewers moved up in the standings for the fact many teams just dropped below them for their level of play. Milwaukee is 5-5 in their past 10 games and just four games back in the win column of the St. Louis Cardinals in the NL Central. Though the Brewers are already 14 games back of the division lead, they do have a 15-15 home mark, but their road record leaves them five games under .500 at 11-16.. (26-31). Previous: . Milwaukee Brewers

Previous: . Arizona Diamondbacks. 24. team. 8. Arizona is 4-6 in their past 10 games, and looking at their home record, they haven’t let their fans leave their home ball park happy. Of the 29 games played at Chase Field this season, they have a 9-20 record in those home games. The Diamondbacks don’t have much of a bite right now, and with just 25 wins in 59 games this season could continue to be a tough one for their fan base.. (25-34)

team. 21. Tampa Bay sits in last place in the AL East, seven games back of the division lead and a half-game back of fourth place in the division. Tampa Bay has won three games in a row, but they still trail the New York Yankees in the division, as they are one of six teams this week to fall one spot in the rankings.. (25-30). Previous: . Tampa Bay Rays. 23

Previous: . Colorado Rockies. 22. team. 108. The Rockies are in the same boat as the Diamondbacks where not a lot is going right for them this season. They trail the San Francisco Giants by nearly nine games in the standings and have won just three games the past 10 times they’ve taken the field. They have a losing record at home as well and sadly lost three of four to the Cincinnati Reds this past week.. (25-31)

Previous: . Los Angeles Angels. 21. team. 102. Though the Angels have jumped up two spots in the MLB Power Rankings, they still should be a better team than what they’ve shown thus far this season They are 5-5 in their past 10 games and have a losing record at home at 12-17. This jump is basically based on the play of how poorly other teams looked this week, as the Angels are still four games under .500 for the season.. (26-30)
