MLB April Grades

In April, the MLB season presented a mix of expected and unexpected outcomes. Some teams shone brightly, while others struggled.

The New York Mets had a legitimate hot start, leading the majors in ERA and performing well at home. The Detroit Tigers showcased pitching depth and the reemergence of key players.

The San Francisco Giants had early magic with five walk-off wins, and the Chicago Cubs are fun and scoring runs.

The San Diego Padres overcame early injuries and had a fantastic first month.

The New York Yankees had a roller coaster with Aaron Judge's outstanding performance.

Teams like the Seattle Mariners, Athletics, and Dodgers had their ups and downs.

Some teams faced challenges, such as the Philadelphia Phillies with inconsistent offense and shaky bullpen.

The Milwaukee Brewers recovered from a disastrous start, and the Tampa Bay Rays looked for offense.

A few teams struggled significantly, like the Colorado Rockies, who might be on track for a historically bad season.

The month of April set the stage for an exciting season ahead.
