The New York Yankees have been one of the hottest teams in baseball. After a great week the find themselves at the top of this week’s AL East Power Rankings.

The New York Yankees are possibly the hottest team in the Major Leagues right now. From hitting to pitching, there is no shortage of talent on this Yankee team.

Last week we saw the Orioles claim the top spot of our Power Rankings, but this week, that is going to change. The Yankees are off to one of their best starts in recent years, and it’s all due to young talent.

The rest of the division is awe struck with the talent that New York has produced this season. This is the time of year where most division races begin to spread out a little bit, and that holds true for the AL East.

The cream is starting to rise to the top at this point in the season. The Yankees find themselves right at the top, but where do the other teams in the east stack up?

Let’s find out in this week’s AL East Power Rankings.
