The MLB Standings 2014 for the AL and NL has a number of surprising division leaders and wild card spots ahead of the July schedule and the All Star break, as the Oakland Athletics, Detroit Tigers, Toronto Blue Jays, Atlanta Braves, Milwaukee Brewers, San Francisco Giants and LA Dodgers are tops, while the wild card teams have the Seattle Mariners, LA Angels, Reds, Cardinals, Washington Nationals, Giants and Dodgers in the American League and National League.

The AL Central has the Detroit Tigers ahead of the KC Royals, while the Indians and White Sox are hanging around.

The NL East has the Atlanta Braves a half game ahead of the Washington Nationals while the Miami Marlins and NY Mets are next in the standings.

The National League has the Giants and Dodgers in the mix, while the Reds, Nationals and Cardinals are also there and they are ahead of the Pirates and Marlins in the standings. The All-Star break is coming soon and the halfway mark is now here in the majors.
