MLB power rankings entering May 2026

MLB power rankings for the start of May 2026 saw significant managerial changes, with the Boston Red Sox front office firing their entire coaching staff and the Philadelphia Phillies dismissing manager Rob Thompson. The New York Mets sit at the bottom of the rankings for a second consecutive week, though their outlook may improve with the expected return of shortstop Francisco Lindor. The rankings cover all 30 teams after a full month of the 2026 MLB season.
