Cubs #1 Again, Top MLB.com Power Rankings

The early season accolades keep rolling in for the Cubs as they’ve just been named the top team in the first MLB Power Rankings published at MLB.com. This makes one of many current power rankings that the Cubs are at the top of (ESPN) and adds to a growing list of experts who feel the Cubs early season start is worth talking about.

The Cubs offense and pitching are both at or near the top of the Majors in many categories and lead the league in ERA (2.64), opponents BABIP (.252), OBP (.365) and, my personal favorite, walks (182). They’re good….really good.
