dailyloe.com – ESPN released its Week 4 MLB Power Rankings on April 23, 2026, one month into the season. The No. 1 team remains strong atop the list, but many playoff hopefuls have fallen. The Mets are making headlines for a 12-game losing streak that ended Wednesday night.
The losing streak dropped the Mets to No. 27 on the Week 4 list. The Phillies have the worst run differential in the majors. The Astros and Red Sox are at the bottom of their divisions.
The Athletics are atop the American League West. The Reds are tied for the fourth-best record in baseball. The Twins are one game behind the AL Central-leading Guardians.
ESPN’s expert panel ranked every team based on what they have seen so far and what they knew going into the 162-game season. ESPN MLB experts Jesse Rogers, Jorge Castillo, and Bradford Doolittle provided an observation for each team.
Max Muncy is hitting .293 with eight homers and nine RBIs. The Dodgers’ spotlight also includes the resurgence of Andy Pages. ESPN noted Pages was a lot better than his horrific struggles.
