Top five at the window’s close · points and the week’s swing
The Tampa Bay Rays still lead, now by 2.0 points over the Milwaukee Brewers, down from 5.0 a week ago. The chase is closing.
The San Diego Padres were the week’s biggest riser, adding 17.5 points, climbing from 13th to 9th. The gain came from runs (35 of them, worth 6.0 points) and home runs (10 of them, worth 5.0 points). Fernando Tatis Jr. drove it: four home runs, seven runs and six RBI.
The Toronto Blue Jays lost the most ground, 11.5 points, falling from 17th to 20th. Their own totals kept climbing: roto placement moves when rivals improve faster, and the field simply went past them.
Batting average was the most volatile category. Minnesota Twins (up 7.0, now 11th) and San Diego Padres (up 4.0, now 22nd) moved the furthest.
The Tampa Bay Rays carry a 2.0-point lead going into the new week.
