MLB Power Rankings: Post Opening Weekend

62. The Mariners took 2 of 3 from a good Indians team. Kyle Seager and Robinson Cano make up the core of this lineup and a Felix Hernandez led rotation has the ability to compete against good teams. Expect this Mariners team to finish anywhere from 2nd to 4th in the West.. (2-1). Previous: n/ath. Seattle Mariners. 15. team

33. The Cardinals made one of the first big moves of the offseason adding Marcell Ozuna from the Marlins. This St. Louis team won’t take the NL Central from the Cubs, but could be a major Wild Card that could make noise in the postseason.. (1-2). Previous: n/ath. St. Louis Cardinals. 14. team

Previous: n/ath. New York Mets. 13. team. 3. If the Mets can keep their starting rotation healthy, that alone has a chance to propel them into a competing team. However, if past years have shown, that hope is unlikely and the Mets will continue to play little brother in the New York.. (2-1)

Previous: n/ath. Colorado Rockies. 12. team. 108. Nolan Arenado and Charlie Blackmon lead this Rockies team with Jon Gray being the face of the rotation. The Rockies have a solid core of players but will struggle in a tough NL West lead by the Dodgers and D-backs.. (1-2)

8. The D-backs are quietly one of the more stacked rotations in baseball. Headlined by Robbie Ray and Zack Greinke, Arizona will look to push for playoff spot this season and possibly make a postseason run.. (2-1). Previous: n/ath. Arizona Diamondbacks. 11. team
