As we get ready for Opening Day, it is time for our first MLB Power Rankings of the new season.

A new season is upon us. For the most part, it is a time of hope, a time to dream that our favorite teams can put it all together, and come away with a World Series title. Of course, given the movement towards tanking that occurred this offseason, there are also those teams that seemingly do not have a chance in the coming year.

This is also the time of year when baseball experts put together their best Nostradamus impression and seek to discern the future as it comes to baseball. Plenty of words have been typed on our predictions, with an in depth look at each team. And now, with the season set to begin, it is time for our preliminary MLB power rankings.

Obviously, there will be plenty of changes as the year goes on. No one can accurately predict all 30 teams, but there is plenty of fun in seeing how close the predictions are. Of course, depending on how badly some of these predictions can go, maybe we don’t want to look back at this in another four or five months.

Let us take a look at our predictions for the upcoming season. Here are the MLB power rankings, Opening Day edition!
