MLB Power Rankings Based on World Series Odds (Braves Surging, Who Grabs Final Spot in NL Wild Card?)

We have just three days left in the 2022 Major League Baseball regular season, and some major shifting has gone on with World Series odds now that the Atlanta Braves have taken over the NL East lead.

The defending champs have positioned themselves well for a playoff run, but can they give the favorite Los Angeles Dodgers a run for their money?

Plus, the NL wild card has yet to be decided, as the Milwaukee Brewers could steal a spot; sitting just two games behind the Philadelphia Phillies with three games left to go.

Here's our latest Power Rankings as the regular season draws to a close:

1. Los Angeles Dodgers (+290) Last Week: No. 1

The Dodgers have won 110 games, and they'll await the wild card winners in the NLDS.

2. Houston Astros (+380) LW: No. 2

Houston has the No. 1 seed in the AL, and it could be staring down another playoff battle with the New York Yankees in the ALCS.

3. New York Yankees (+500) LW: No. 3

The Yankees have gotten hot at the right time, and they could get even more reinforcements back with Matt Carpenter potentially returning for the postseason.

4. Atlanta Braves (+500) LW: No. 5

The Braves swept the Mets, coming all the way back from 10.5 games down in the division, and they now are one of the three favorites (tied with the Yankees) to win it all.

5. New York Mets (+700) LW: No. 4

The Mets have put themselves in a tough spot, as their playoff path is likely going to be San Diego and then Los Angeles, if they make it out of the wild card.

6. St. Louis Cardinals (+1800) LW: No. 6

It feels like the Cardinals are being slept on in the National League, but their road is going to be tough as the No. 3 division winner.

7. Cleveland Guardians (+3200) LW: No. 7

The 90-win Guardians have a solid pitching staff, but their AL wild card is a gauntlet to deal with.

8. Toronto Blue Jays (+1800) LW: No. 8

Oddsmakers seem to love the Jays' chances of making a run as a wild card team, but can they upset Houston in the ALDS, if they get there?

9. San Diego Padres (+3000) LW: No. 9

The Padres finally clinched a playoff spot, and they now have a chance to stun the Mets in the wild card round.

10. Seattle Mariners (+2600) LW: No. 11

The Mariners can grab the No. 2 spot in the wild card with a strong finish, as they have a slight lead over the Tampa Bay Rays with three to play.

11. Tampa Bay Rays (+3000) LW: No. 10

Back-to-back losses have dropped the Rays into the No. 3 spot in the AL wild card. I question if this team has the offensive firepower to advance deep in the postseason.
