Florida's two teams make significant jumps in our MLB Power Rankings for Week 14. The Tampa Bay Rays move up three spots -- from No. 6 to No. 3 -- to leapfrog the New York Yankees as the American League's top team (just as they also leapfrogged the Yankees in the AL East standings). Meanwhile, the Miami Marlins crack the top 10 -- jumping from No. 16 all the way to No. 9.
