MLB Power Rankings Week 17: A shake-up in the top 5

Tampa Bay's 113-day reign atop the American League East is over -- there's a new division leader in town.

The Orioles not only jumped the Rays in the division but in our power rankings as well, with Baltimore making its debut at No. 2 -- its highest standing in recent memory. But that was not the only change in our top five this week.

The Dodgers secured the final spot in the top three, the Rays fell to No. 4 -- their lowest standing since they were fourth in our Week 1 power rankings -- and the Rangers rounded out the top five.
