No. 5 Houston Astros
Standings: 8-4 (1st in AL West)
Last Week's Ranking: 10th
Outlook: Seattle fans are tired of seeing the Astros. Houston won five of their first seven games against the Mariners. They took two of three games in their latest series against the Mariners. As expected, the Astros have been led by Jose Altuve who is hitting .326 with 14 hits. Houston also has strong pitching with three pitchers with 15 or more strikeouts over the first two weeks of the season. Dallas Keuchel has two wins in his first three starts and has a 0.86 ERA. This week, the Astros host the Angels for a four-game series then travel to Tampa to take on the Rays. (Getty)
