MLB: The Top 10 Teams Right Now

10. New York Yankees

After some lengthy struggles, the Yankees have been playing better and are in a position to grab one of the Wild Card slots.

1. Milwaukee Brewers

The Brewers are getting amazing starting pitching and production up and down their lineup. They have been the hottest team in the National League.

2. Detroit Tigers

The Tigers have a great rotation and are getting production from young hitters. They have a good chance to be the number one or two seed in the American League.

3. Philadelphia Phillies

The Phillies have a terrific lineup, great starting pitching, and plenty of arms in the pen. They are playing some of their best baseball right now despite losing Zack Wheeler for the remainder of the season.

4. Toronto Blue Jays

The Blue Jays have been playing great baseball for months now and lead the AL East.

5. Chicago Cubs

The offense is amazing, the starting pitching has been solid, and the bullpen has settled in nicely. The Cubs are chasing the Brewers in the NL Central.

6. Los Angeles Dodgers

The Dodgers hit a bit of a lull in early August but are back and track and currently have the top spot in the NL West.

7. San Diego Padres

The Padres have been playing solid baseball all year, but the NL West is a tough division. They have caught up to the Dodgers over the past couple of weeks.

8. Houston Astros

The Astros' starting pitching has been great, their bullpen has been lights out, and their lineup has exceeded expectations, even with all the injuries they have suffered. If Yordan Alvarez returns as expected, he will be a huge boost.

9. Boston Red Sox

Lack of pitching depth might be a problem, but the Red Sox are dangerous offensively and can make some serious noise.

10. New York Yankees

After some lengthy struggles, the Yankees have been playing better and are in a position to grab one of the Wild Card slots.
