The month of May is when teams begin to separate into three groups: Contenders, casual bystanders, and Marlins. If a team can keep a good run for two months, there is a good chance that they can keep it up for the remaining four. The 2011 Pirates, Indians, and Rockies would disagree

Only one team from the preseason top 5 (Detroit) is in the current top 5, and only five of the preseason top 10 are in the current top ten.
