MLB Power Rankings
Rank LW Team
21 28 Brad Lidge pitched a scoreless sixth inning Friday, with a fastball in the upper-90s. Saturday, he gave up a run-scoring hit and walked a batter. The beating goes on.
22 16 Imported slugger Adam LaRoche is hitting .088. The Bucs stink. "We're all going to look back on this in a month, and it will be nothing," he said. Yep. Accurate.
23 15 "I can see," Lou Piniella said after his team blew a 5-0 lead. "I can start to see some of the ways this team has lost ballgames." Someone give that man a blindfold. Quick.
24 20 Setup man LaTroy Hawkins ($3.5 million) is costing the Rocks in more ways than one this season. He's been pulled twice in the eighth so far. No refunds. Sorry.
25 23 Mark Teixeira is still in search of his first home run of the season. Good news, though: Vicente Padilla has his first plunk victim -- Ichiro, on Saturday. All's right in Texas.
26 25 "Our backs are against the wall," Pat Burrell said this week, "and I think everybody in here knows it." If only Ryan Howard could only hit homers like Jimmy Rollins.
27 21 It's a bad break when you beat Johan Santana and Joe Nathan in one series and still can't climb up the PRs. The competition's fierce down here in the dungeon.
28 29 A rained-out weekend might be the best thing that could have happened to San Fran. Barry Bonds, after two homers Friday (19 to go), might even agree.
29 26 The Royals have lost seven of their last eight. Alex Gordon is hitting .111. If it weren't for Zack Greinke, I might not check back on this team until August.
30 30 They've won one straight. Chad Cordero hasn't blown any games. And if you're looking for more positives than that, you're at the wrong end of the PRs, bub.
