MLS POWER RANKINGS 27 MAY 2015
| RANK | TEAM | COMMENTS | Last 6 | Previous | Change |
| 1 |  Seattle Sounders FC |
Seattle’s offense may have been shutout on the weekend, but they managed to keep a clean sheet and have the best league record in the last 6. | 4-1-1 | 3 | 2 |
| 2 |  New England Revolution |
New England had a big stumble midweek, but made up for it with a gutsy performance with a two man disadvantage. | 2-1-3 | 2 | 0 |
| 3 |  FC Dallas |
Few probably saw the loss to the Impact this past weekend coming. Dallas is surely hoping it was a one off. | 3-1-2 | 1 | -2 |
| 4 |  DC United |
DC showed well this weekend, but they must surely be disappointed they couldn’t find a win against the 9-man Revs. | 3-1-2 | 5 | 1 |
| 5 |  Sporting Kansas City |
Vermes and Co had a solid week. A big win against the Revs followed by a strong performance in Seattle, all while dealing with a short roster. | 2-1-3 | 10 | 5 |
| 6 |  Columbus Crew SC |
Columbus moves up the list despite drawing at home to Chicago after they had a 2-0 lead. Need to get Will Trapp back soon to push into the top 5. | 3-2-1 | 8 | 2 |
| 7 |  Vancouver Whitecaps FC |
Vancouver’s loss to the Rapids was one of a string of unexpected results on the weekend. Whitecaps still being bailed out by Ousted and not scoring like they need to after starting off the year hot. | 2-3-1 | 6 | -1 |
| 8 |  Red Bull New York |
Red Bulls left embarrassed by a home loss to a game they dominated but failed to score, something that has been happening too frequently. | 1-2-3 | 4 | -4 |
| 9 |  Toronto FC |
Toronto looked like a squad starting to click against Portland. Finding consistency is the next milestone now. | 3-2-1 | 9 | 0 |
| 10 |  San Jose Earthquakes |
Wondo scores number 100 in a home draw against Orlando. Avaya stadium is helping with the results, but the Earthquakes are lacking offensive punch. | 2-1-3 | 11 | 1 |
| 11 |  Houston Dynamo |
Losing to LA was a step back for Houston. They sit with a single win over their last 6 now. The return of Cubo should help boost them in the coming weeks. | 2-3-1 | 7 | -4 |
| 12 |  Montreal Impact |
Don’t look now, but the Impact have two big wins in a row now. Punched well above their weight against Dallas, but still came away with 3 points against a tough team. | 2-2-1 | 12 | 0 |
| 13 |  Real Salt Lake |
RSL’s win against former coach Jason Kreis surely felt good for the struggling team. The return of Joao Plata should boost the squad as we move into the summer months. | 2-2-2 | 13 | 0 |
| 14 |  Philadelphia Union |
The Union found itself in a two game winning streak against two very good opponents. While they hung on by a thread for 3 points, those results will be important for a team trying to regain its confidence. | 1-1-4 | 18 | 4 |
| 15 |  LA Galaxy |
So much of this column has been about players either injured or returning. Galaxy got a very important piece back this week when Robbie Keane returned to action. Can he and Bruce Arena get the house in order before a certain Liverpudlian midfielder arrives? | 2-2-2 | 17 | 2 |
| 16 |  Colorado Rapids |
The goal was class, and the win must have felt good for the Rapids. The offense is still struggling mightily with a nearly league low 10 goals scored. A DP striker waiting in the wings is a welcome sight for those Colorado fans. | 2-3-1 | 14 | -2 |
| 17 |  Portland Timbers |
The Timbers continue to under perform. The seat must be getting hot for Caleb Porter after two consecutive losses and a mere three wins this season. Will he be able to ride it out? | 2-1-3 | 15 | -2 |
| 18 |  Chicago Fire |
Chicago Fired the Crew in a rerun with switched roles from their previous week’s game in Yankee Stadium. Stopping opposing offenses needs some work. | 2-3-1 | 16 | -2 |
| 19 |  Orlando City SC |
Orlando’s follow up performance was a bit underwhelming, but they did earn a draw in the process, | 1-2-3 | 19 | 0 |
| 20 |  New York City FC |
NYC followed up their big draw against Chicago with a loss on the road to RSL. They haven’t won since week 2, and things don’t look to be getting much better any time soon. Paging Mr. Lampard. | 0-4-2 | 20 | 0 |
