The Houston Astros may be the most complete team in all of MLB. But, the New York Yankees and Boston Red Sox may have something to say on the matter as well, in our latest MLB power rankings.

At the beginning of the season, MLB Power Rankings mean next to nothing, with the standings shifting more than an ocean tide. A prime example is the Arizona Diamondbacks, who have embraced their inner Tom Petty in free falling from their perch as the best National League team.

In fact, the Diamondbacks are no longer the king of the castle in the NL West, with the Colorado Rockies catching fire of late. The Los Angeles Dodgers have righted the ship and are back in the thick of things also — where they were left for dead.

The NL East boasts as the most complete division in all of MLB, with the Atlanta Braves, Philadelphia Phillies, and surging Washington Nationals all within one game of one another. Don’t sleep on the New York Mets, either.

The Chicago Cubs and Milwaukee Brewers keep on rolling, while the St. Louis Cardinals and Pittsburgh Pirates shifted towards the wrong direction. Will the return of Alex Reyes, Yadier Molina, and the rest of their injured squad be enough?

Meanwhile, the American League boasts the two best records in all of baseball, with the New York Yankees and Boston Red Sox. However, the AL is more than just a two-trick pony, with the Houston Astros and the rest of the AL West proving they can hang with the elite.

Are the Houston Astros even the most complete team in all of MLB?

Before we jump into our MLB Power Rankings, let’s take a look at the current standings, which have shaken up since the last time we met.
