MLB Power Rankings Week 18: Post-trade deadline edition

Welcome to a special Friday post-trade deadline edition of ESPN's MLB Power Rankings.

This year's deadline was a slow burn, only really picking up in the two days before Thursday's 6 p.m. ET cutoff. The Mariners kicked off trade season by dealing for Arizona's Josh Naylor late last week, and things didn't get going again until a flurry of movement this past Wednesday that saw Minnesota's Jhoan Duran head to the Phillies and Arizona's Eugenio Suarez join his teammate in Seattle.

Thursday was jam-packed with deals, especially as the deadline came to a close, from Houston acquiring former Astro Carlos Correa from the Twins to the Padres going all-in and trading for five players, including Mason Miller and Ryan O'Hearn.

Which contenders got the biggest boost from the deadline and moved up our list? And which clubs didn't do themselves any favors? Our expert panel has ranked every team based on a combination of what we've seen so far and what we already knew going into the 162-game marathon that is a full baseball season. Take a look at where every team stands following the deadline -- and the biggest moves each made.
