Last week's ranking in parentheses
| Team | ||
| 1 | Yankees (1) | Yanks institute The Gaga Rules: No overrated pop divas allowed in clubhouse |

| 7 | Mets (5) | Dessens remains best pitcher in history named "Elmer" |
| 8 | Cardinals (12) | Where's Tito Landrum when you really need him? |
| 9 | Twins (8) | If M's get catcher Ramos in Cliff Lee deal, they'd have a Wilson behind plate again |
| 10 | Tigers (10) | Brennan Boesch (.344) is anti-Strasburg: impact rookie with zero hype |
| 11 | Giants (11) | Giants claim San Jose territory to thwart A's, rename it Republic of Lincecum |
| 12 | White Sox (18) | No Sox housecleaning after all; they'll remain as messy and unkempt as ever |

| 21 | Brewers (24) | One of these days, Weeks will parlay hot month into great year |
| 22 | Nationals (22) | Strasburg an All-Star is one thing; getting lifetime achievement award a bit much |
| 23 | Cubs (21) | As concession to age, Lou kicks dirt only with orthopedic shoes |

| 28 | Indians (28) | Cleveland fans from 1967 to '93 fully recognize current state of Indians baseball |
| 29 | Pirates (29) | Pirates fire rogue pierogi; only fitting since they haven't fielded a wiener since '93 |
