The Rangers remain in the top spot, but check out the rise of the Indians.
It's no surprise Texas leads the Top 10. The other teams are mostly less obvious -- but will they be there in late September?
Happy 50th Anniversary to the Amazin's -- with Nationals starter Stephen Strasburg coming out of the birthday cake.
Stephen Strasburg outpitched Johan Santana for six innings, and the Washington Nationals' bullpen made the lead stand up for a 4-0 victory over New York on the 50th anniversary of the Mets' first game.
You didn't think it was going to be all smooth sailing, did you Mets fans?
Ross Detwiler pitched five scoreless innings and the Washington Nationals beat New York 6-2 Tuesday, handing the Mets their first loss of the season on the same night they learned that David Wright had broken a finger.
Kirk Nieuwenhuis hit his first major league homer for the Mets, who are 4-0 for the first time since 2007. Coming off a surprising three-game sweep of Atlanta to start the season, New York rallied from a three-run deficit before a crowd of 23,970.
What's the next best thing to a free game on Easter Sunday? How about a pitchers' duel for less than three bucks.
New York Mets pitcher Matt Harvey and Justin Hampson gave up 10 runs in first three innings.
Jordan Zimmermann will be a big piece of a Washington team that is only going to get better over the next few years.
Dickey had a rough outing, giving up five runs and eight hits in three innings.
Rick Ankiel's new batting stance is already paying dividends. Ankiel hit his first spring homer and the Washington Nationals beat the New York Mets 3-1 on Monday.
Some Yankees fans have expressed outrage, but Brian Cashman has kept the organization's best interests at heart by waiting for the right deal.
It's always darkest before the dawn. And fans will see what awaits in Mets' stockings this holiday season. Maybe G.M. Alderson can be a Sandy Claus to answer a myriad of Met wishes now and in the future.
Sweeny Murti discusses the Yankees' rotation going into 2012, remaining free agent possibilities and the likelihood of trading A.J. Burnett.
C.J. Wilson may be the most talented starter on the free agent market but the Yankees should turn to other targets if his salary demands are too high.
By agreeing to an extension without opting out, CC Sabathia again demonstrated why he'll be remembered as a beloved Yankee and not a mercenary -- like Alex Rodriguez.
If you thought the Mets' process to re-sign Jose Reyes would move as quickly as one of the All-Star's trademark triples, think again.
I hear from Mets fans a lot. They all ask me the same thing via text messaging and Twitter: "Will Jose Reyes be back?"
If only the weather was as hot as Mets manager Terry Collins. You'd be upset too if you had to change pitchers that many times -- without an umbrella.
Ian Desmond had a career-high five hits and Tommy Milone earned his first major league win, leading the Washington Nationals over the slumping Mets 10-1 on Thursday for a rare four-game sweep.
Mike Pelfrey's pitching line looked pretty good -- seven innings, no earned runs. Which made the bottom line even more disappointing.
Mets shortstop Jose Reyes dropped a bomb Tuesday night. He's nursing that troublesome left hamstring -- yet again.
As the Mets skid to their third straight losing season, the plus side is that few of their fans seem to be paying much attention.
Craig Stammen got his first win and hit in more than a year, scoring the go-ahead run on Ryan Zimmerman's seventh-inning single to lead the Washington Nationals over the New York Mets 3-2 Tuesday night.
