A flurry of offseason moves has undoubtedly shifted the balance of power around the league. Major League Baseball has had as busy a winter as any in recent memory.
Last season, the AL West and NL Central were the deepest divisions in baseball. Each had three teams vying for a playoff spot into the final month of the year.
The NL West and AL Central both featured two playoff teams, including the eventual pennant winners, but were undoubtedly weak at the bottom.
Finally, the AL East and NL East were both one-team races, as the Baltimore Orioles and Washington Nationals cruised to their respective division titles by double-digit games.
With an offseason of roster shuffling already well under way, let's take an updated look at where all six divisions rank, moving from weakest to strongest.
The rankings will be based on how deep each division is top to bottom, and I will take into account how their five teams stack up to the rest of the league as a whole.
