The Milwaukee Brewers went undefeated last week and are widening the gap between them and the second ranked Cubs. The Phillies have ascended to the number three ranking while the Tigers drop to number five. The Mets are in a freefall now and have fallen to number thirteen in my rankings.

Hitting

The top 10 hitting teams remain pretty consistent. The Mets are now flirting with dropping out of the top 10.

Judge continues to hold down the top spot for TOP. Cal Raleigh continues to hit home runs, but isn’t doing much else as of late. Nick Kurtz continues to remain one of the best hitters in the game. He would be third if he had enough plate appearances to qualify. Ronald Acuna would be slotted in right behind Kyle Schwarber if he had enough plate appearances as well. Frank the Tank needs to get off of Juan Soto’s back. He’s not the problem for the Mets.

Pitching

The top 4 teams in TOP remain the same for the week. Can’t blame the Mets pitching for their collapse.

Eovaldi has been dominant lately and has now taken over the top spot in TOP. He still seems to be the forgotten pitcher in the MLB by the media.
