1 Los Angeles Dodgers

Behind one of the best offenses in the league, the Los Angeles Dodgers (58-36) have scored the second-most runs in baseball (500). Six Dodgers hitters have hit at least 11 or more home runs thus far this season.

2 San Francisco Giants

The San Francisco Giants (58-34) are leading an NL West division that has three of the best teams in baseball. With the Padres and Dodgers lurking, it’ll be interesting to see if the Giants can keep the division lead.

3 Houston Astros

The Houston Astros (56-38) have been lurking near the top of the American League for much of the season. With one of the most powerful offenses in the league, the Astros have scored the most runs in baseball (504).

4 Chicago White Sox

The Chicago White Sox (56-36) are one of the most complete teams in the league. The White Sox rank in the top five in batting (fourth in MLB with a .257 average), while also ranking seventh in pitching (3.55 team ERA).

5 Tampa Bay Rays

The surprising Tampa Bay Rays (55-38) are seeking a third straight postseason appearance. Led by a top 10 pitching staff (eighth in MLB with a 3.59 team ERA), the Rays hope to make it to a second consecutive World Series.
