In the blink of an eye, we've gone from small sample sizes to rapidly closing in on the midpoint of the 2025 MLB season.

In less than a month, the game's best and brightest will converge on Truist Park in Atlanta for the annual All-Star Game, and that unofficial midpoint of the season often also serves as the soft deadline for teams to decide whether they are going to buy or sell at the trade deadline.

There are no major surprises atop the divisional standings, though the gap between the Chicago Cubs and Detroit Tigers and the rest of their competition in the NL Central and AL Central, respectively, has been a bit wider than expected.

The Atlanta Braves and Baltimore Orioles could be surprise sellers after entering the year with World Series aspirations, and there are 11 teams hovering within four games on either side of a .500 record that will decide the direction of their season in the coming weeks.

All of that to say, these weekly MLB power rankings remain an extremely fluid process. If a team is winning, it will climb. If a team is losing, it will fall.
