AL

East

The AL East has been quite a surprising division, with the Tampa Bay Rays jumping out to a quick nine and three record, with the third best win percentage in the entire league. Perhaps the biggest concern in this division is not the unexpected rise to the top for the Rays, but the fall of the defending World Series Champions, the Boston Red Sox, to the bottom of the division, with just a measly 3 wins. I am sure the Red Sox will recover from their slow start, but considering they are already 6 games behind the division leading Rays, it will hard for them to win their division once again.

Central

The Indians are once again leading the AL Central here in the early goings of the season, with a seven-three record to start the year. However, the Tigers have also made a name for themselves already, just a half a game behind Cleveland with a seven-four record, and the Minnesota Twins are only a game behind as well. This division may well be an interesting one to watch as the season goes on, with lots of teams already in close contention and winning records.

West

My oh my, the league-leading Seattle Mariners are on top of the AL West, with an impressive 10 wins and two losses to make for a lopsided .833 win percentage. It helps that their bats have stayed hot and their pitching has stayed dominant, accounting for their league-best +37 run differential. The next best team, the Astros, are already 3.5 games behind the Mariners, and considering the Mariners show no signs of slowing, they will likely dominate the rest of the season.

NL

East

The NL East has been my personal favorite division so far, not just because it has my personal favorite Atlanta Braves. Behind the AL Central, the NL East is the second-most competitive division so far in the year. After getting swept by the Philadelphia Phillies to start the year, the Braves have won six out of their last 7 games, jumping out to a six-four record, 1.5 games behind the seven-and-two Phillies. In addition, the Mets have also played well and are also only one game behind, with a six-three record.

Central

The NL Central has gone about as expected in the first two weeks. The defending AL Central champs Milwaukee Brewers have taken a two game lead already at eight wins and three losses, and the Cubs have gotten into a slump, falling to three-and-seven within the first 10 games. This division seems to be inconsistent outside of the Brewers, however, so it may be interesting to see what happens to the Pirates and the Cardinals as the season continues.

West

As to no one's surprise, the Dodgers have jumped out in front of the rest of the teams in the NL West, with an eight wins and three losses. This is especially unsurprising considering the Dodgers have Cody Bellinger, who leads the league in home runs with 7, and the fact that the Dodgers have the best team batting average in the league with .296. However, the seven-and-four San Diego Padres are just a game behind LA and one good series could put them ahead, making for a good battle the rest of the season.
