Power Ranking MLB's 6 Divisions by Predicted 2nd-Half Excitement

It’s official.

The second half of the Major League Baseball season is underway, or the post-All-Star break portion of the season for the technical types.

With this part of the year comes renewed excitement. The division races heat up through the non-waiver trade deadline this month, the waiver trade market in August and the stretch run in September. With at least one team in every division within striking distance of the leader, it makes the final two-plus months of the regular season ripe with intrigue.

Just how much is yet to be determined, but based on the standings, current roster construction and potential trade deadline moves, we can get a decent indication of which divisions will be the most thrilling in the second half.

Ranking them from having the least potential excitement to the most, here is where the six divisions fall.
