MLB Power Rankings Week 5

8. Boston Red Sox

---

Record: 18-13, Last Week: No. 10, The Breakdown: Alright, we know. The Red Sox lost the opening two games of the series to the Yankees. They also lost the series opener at the White Sox on Tuesday. But - and this is a slightly good but - Boston also defeated Chicago twice this week. On the road. And they hit well. Really well. Dustin Pedroia, Hanley Ramirez and Jackie Bradley, Jr. all homered in the 7-3 win on Thursday night as the Red Sox racked up 12 hits. If and when Boston can keep hitting like that, they're a very difficult team to slow down. (Getty)
