1 Last: 1 Remember last week when we moved them up to No. 1 after a home draw? They justified it this week. Yeah, FCD are slumping, but a 3-0 road win is exactly how you drop the hammer. Last Week: Won at FC Dallas, 3-0

W-W-W-D-W This Week: Saturday vs. Sporting Kansas City (10 pm ET, MLS Live)

2 Last: 2 Portland probably should have lost that game – the Galaxy controlled most of the play, and had the better chances. But great teams find a way, and right now the Timbers are a great team. Last Week: Won vs. LA, 2-1

D-W-D-W-L This Week: Saturday at Philadelphia (7:30 pm ET, MLS Live)

3 Last: 3 Their most stylish performance of the season, by far. Putting Benny Feilhaber deeper in the midfield to act as a pivot and letting Graham Zusi be the No. 10 was perfect. Question is, can they do it against a team that's better than TFC? Last Week: Won vs. Toronto FC. 3-0

Won vs. Toronto FC. 3-0 Last Five: D-W-D-W-W

D-W-D-W-W This Week: Saturday at Real Salt Lake (10 pm ET, MLS Live)

4 Last: 4 They have the hottest forward in the league, which will definitely get you some points. Their defense has held up despite all the injuries as well. But they probably still need another real attacker in midfield. Last Week: Won vs. Chicago, 3-1

Won vs. Chicago, 3-1 Last Five: W-W-D-W-W

W-W-D-W-W This Week: Saturday at LA (10:30 pm ET; MLS Live)

5 Last: 6 The Galaxy remain the only team in the league that's gone toe-to-toe with Portland and outplayed them. They have one point for their efforts because Portland's kids – Darlington Nagbe and Andrew Jean-Baptiste – have quite clearly gotten the better of LA's. Last Week: Lost at Portland, 2-1

Lost at Portland, 2-1 Last Five: W-L-W-W-L

W-L-W-W-L This Week: Saturday vs. Vancouver (10:30 pm ET; MLS Live)

6 Last: 8 New York kill teams that give up a ton of space, and has done so since Thierry Henry arrived in 2010. Nobody in the league, at this point, gives up as much space as Montreal. That 4-0 blowout was not unexpected. Last Week: Won vs. Montreal, 4-0

Won vs. Montreal, 4-0 Last Five : L-L-W-L-W

: L-L-W-L-W This Week: Saturday at Toronto (4 pm ET, MLS Live)

7 Last: 5 At some point, Marco Schällibaum has to scrap the 4-4-2 and go to a 4-2-3-1. The backline is too old, slow and frail, and Patrice Bernier can't shield them all by himself. Last Week: Lost at New York, 4-0

Lost at New York, 4-0 Last Five: W-L-D-D-L

W-L-D-D-L This Week: Saturday vs.FC Dallas (7 pm ET, MLS Live)

8 Last: 11 They've gotten good production from a bunch of youngsters, and they've gotten the pre-Achilles' injury Conor Casey. Still a lot of holes in this team, but they're beating the sides they should beat. Last Week: Won vs. Chivas USA, 3-1

Won vs. Chivas USA, 3-1 Last Five: W-D-D-L-W

W-D-D-L-W This Week: Saturday vs. Portland (7:30 pm ET, MLS Live)

9 Last: 9 On the other side of this bye week they'll have Kevin Harbottle, Martín Rivero and quite possibly Diego Calderón back. This team is set up for a midsummer run at a playoff spot. Last Week: Bye

Bye Last Five: L-L-W-W-D

L-L-W-W-D This Week: Wednesday vs. New England (9 pm ET, MLS Live)

Saturday at Seattle (4 pm ET, MLS Live)

10 Last: 12 Snapped out of their coma in a big way these past couple of weeks, but Adam Moffat's not going to hit a blast like that every matchday. The forwards need to start scoring at some point. Last Week: Won at New England, 2-1

Won at New England, 2-1 Last Five: L-D-L-W-W

L-D-L-W-W Next MLS Game: July 27 vs. Chicago (9 pm ET, NBCSN)

11 Last: 7 No wins since May 25. No real answers anywhere on the pitch. Bad times in Frisco. Last Week: Lost to Real Salt Lake, 3-0

Lost to Real Salt Lake, 3-0 Last Five: D-D-D-L-L

D-D-D-L-L This Week: Saturday at Montreal (7 pm ET, MLS Live)

12 Last: 10 San Jose have two shutouts this year, both against the Sounders. The Power Rankings Politburo has a lot of faith in Sigi Schmid, but this season might get worse before it gets better. Last Week: Lost at San Jose, 1-0

Lost at San Jose, 1-0 Last Five: W-L-W-L-L

W-L-W-L-L This Week: Saturday vs. Colorado (4 pm ET, MLS Live)

14 Last: 16 Hard to read too much into that win, since the Quakes have won 5 of 6 against Seattle and simply own the Sounders. Three wins in six since Mark Watson took over, however, says that last year's Shield winners are rounding into form. Now if they could only get Wondow back... Last Week: Won vs. Seattle, 1-0

15 Last: 14 Since Juan Agudelo arrived, the Revs are 3-1-1 when he plays. When he doesn't, they're 1-2-2. Their playoff hopes probably come down to whether they can keep him healthy. Last Week: Lost vs. Houston, 2-1

Saturday at Columbus (7:30 pm ET, MLS Live)

16 Last: 15 Cruel to drop a team after a bye week, but credit to San Jose for the jump. We're hoping to see more of the Ohio kids that beat the Timbers in the coming weeks. Last Week: Bye

Bye Last Five: W-L-L-L-W

W-L-L-L-W This Week: Saturday vs. New England (7:30 pm ET, MLS Live)

17 Last: 17 Total face-plant against Sporting. Toronto were never in that game, and the run of decent defensive form that happened with Steven Caldwell's arrival seems to have dried up. Last Week: Lost at Sporting Kansas City, 3-0

18 Last: 18 Brutal back-pass call cost them a goal, but lack of discipline cost them a man. Never, ever bump a ref. It can only cost you points.
