MLB 2026 Early Season – Yankees and Dodgers Setting the Pace
Two weeks into the 2026 MLB season, the New York Yankees and Los Angeles Dodgers continue their strong early pace, sitting atop their divisions thanks to the power of Juan Soto (.415 average) and Shohei Ohtani (already 6 home runs). Several surprise teams are also off to hot starts as the 162-game grind begins in earnest. League-wide offense remains elevated with the new pace-of-play rules in full effect.
