The first mile marker in the season has come and gone.Memorial Day is now nothing more than a memory, with the traditional holiday waypoint in the MLB season giving fans a clearer picture of what their teams will be entering the summer.MORE: For most fans, that means get ready for mediocrity: 18 teams acro s MLB are at or below .500 through May 30, which isn't exactly indicative of strong Reynaldo Lopez Jersey competition acro s the board, especiallyBut, for the gla s-half-full folks, maybe that means your team can make a run come September. Baseball is weird, after all.Here's how the latest MLB Power Rankings sort out. As always, do not @ us: Record:33-15The Dodgers are still chugging along as the NL's best, largely thanks to, well, everything.LA's lineup is the best in the Senior Circuit, scoring 5.56 runs per game through Memorial Day. Interestingly, Mookie Betts is the only player in the lineup with double-digit home runs.Even with the injury to Clayton Kershaw, the Dodgers keep humming along, too. Their collective 2.72 staff ERA is tops in the National League.In all, it's more of the same for the deepest, most well-rounded team in baseball. Wash, rinse, repeat. Record:33-15It feels like the Yankees are at something of a cro sroads in their season. They've endured injuries to big bullpen pieces, Aaron Hicks and Joey Gallo have been non-factors in the outfield and the catching situation is le s-than ideal.Through it all, they keep winning: They split a four-game series with the Rays leading up to Memorial Day, their toughest opponent to date, so they're still something of a question mark.It feels like the Yankees' standing here is slightly tenuous given their current injury i sues and black holes in the lineup. We'll see how they'll hold up over the coming weeks. Record:33-17The measure of a great team is how they play in the wake of adversity, and the Mets have been up to the task.With both Jacob deGrom and Max Scherzer out, the Mets could have folded, as they've done in years past. Instead, they've remained one of baseball's better teams, getting great performances from Chris Ba sitt and Carlos Carrasco, good offense up and down the lineup and steady guidance from Buck Showalter.They'll still have to navigate some dark spots in the bullpen, but New York is here to stay and it might be their division for the taking, with an 8 1/2 game lead at this point in Bill Melton Jersey the season and the rest of the NL East stumbling along. Record:32-18The Brewers haven't exactly been tested early on this season, but you can only play who's on your schedule, after all.Milwaukee ace Brandon Woodruff has had a wishy-washy season, eventually being placed on the IL with an ankle sprain, an injury that cut short his May 27 start vs. the Cardinals. Thankfully for the Crew, Jim Abbott Jersey Corbin Burnes has been money again this year, making an early case as a repeat Cy Young candidate. Record:31-18The Astros just keep plugging along despite an inconsistent offense: They've scored seven or more runs eight times this season (8-0 record), but in 19 games they've scored two runs or le s. They're 4-15 in those games.They're getting tremendous pitching up and down the staff, which will help them over the long run if the bats can't stay hot. Record:30-18No 'Nando? No problem.Manny Machado is reminding everyone why the Padres signed him to that $300 million deal a few years back. He's pacing the NL with a .353 average and .432 on-base percentage through 46 games this year, posting a 3.2 bWAR in the proce s.Also providing some lift to San Diego is top prospect MacKenzie Gore. The lefty has pitched to a thin 1.71 ERA through eight games (seven starts).The Dads are 4-2 vs. the Giants and 1-2 vs. the Dodgers. They have yet to play the Rockies, but don't expect Colorado to really get in their way. Record:29-20The Byron Buxton dilemma continues.The oft-injured but uber-talented outfielder is down to .203 after showing signs of a repeat of his excellent 2021 season early on. In May, Buxton is hitting .163 with a .253 OBP in 21 games.Even through Buxton's struggles, Minnesota's lineup is one of the better constructed ones in the AL, and their gamble on Carlos Correa seems to be working out so far.Minnesota will still be the cream of the AL Central, even if they ultimately end up just below that top tier of American League squads. Record:27-20Three AL East teams in the top 10 should tell you how loaded the division is, especially so if the Red Sox can turn it around.The Jays are 3-6 vs. AL East leading Yankees, 1-2 vs. the Rays and 5-2 vs. the Red Sox. They're getting hot, though: They're winners of seven of their last 10. What's better is Bo Bichette is hitting .289 in May, rebounding after a difficult April. Record:28-20The Rays' middle-of-the-road offense coupled with really good pitching. The formula remains the same for Tampa Bay.They split a two-game series with the Yankees, mi sing out on an opportunity to tighten the gap between then and the division leaders. They meet James McCann Jersey again on June 20, and at that time, they might be two teams heading in opposite directions. Record:27-21Devil Magic is alive and well in St. Louis. Paul Goldschmidt has rebounded well this year and is making an early case as the NL MVP. The Cards' first baseman is slashing .352/.418/.626 through 202 plate appearances.Interestingly, most of Goldschmidt's swing numbers are about in line with what he's done throughout his career. What's a bit different, though, is that he's hitting the ball in the air a bit more: At 43.3 percent, Goldschmidt's fly ball percentage is up significantly from his 35.8 percent career average.What does it mean? Elevate the ball and good things will happen, basically. 11. GiantsRecord:26-21Joey Bart might not be hitting, but he's among MLB's best in framing runs. That's a positive to pull out of the one-time top prospect.12. AngelsRecord:27-22The Angels are free-falling: They're 3-9 in their past 12 and head out on an East Coast trip this week.13. White SoxRecord:23-23The Yoan Moncada Jersey White Sox have hovered around .500 all season, with their high-water mark of four games over coming on April 16. This might be what they are this season, unle s the offense gets going. Also, long live Johnny Cueto.14. Red SoxRecord:23-26Boston has rebounded well after a rough start, going 10-5 in their last 15 games. A soft schedule coming up could catapult them back into wild-card contender status and maybe even division talk.15. RangersRecord:23-24Marcus Semien has been one of the worst hitters in baseball this year. Not exactly what Texas was envisioning when the franchise inked
