Phillies Surge to #1 as Padres Stumble and Michael King’s Injury Sparks Uncertainty
2) Detroit Tigers ⬇️
Last week: 1
After a couple of uncharacteristic so-so starts, Tarik Skubal had the best outing of his career on Sunday against the Guardians, tossing a two-hitter with 13 strikeouts in just 94 pitches. Yes, that’s a Maddux. It was the first complete game of his career and just the fifth shutout across MLB this season. If that wasn’t impressive enough, Skubal dialed it up to 103 mph for his final pitch of the ballgame. Pure dominance.
3) New York Yankees ⬆️
Last week: 5
In one of the truly weird and somewhat unbelievable stats, this game-winning homer off the bat of Jasson Dominguez last Wednesday was the first walk-off blast by a Yankees player in 974 days. Giancarlo Stanton was the last to do it on September 20, 2022. With some expected growing pains, Jasson Dominguez has mostly been worth the wait for Yankees fans.
