Two weeks are now in the books here in the 2016 MLB season, and already there has been no shortage of excitement and intrigue around the league.
That being said, we are dealing with an incredibly small sample size at this point, so it's important not to put too much stock in the early returns—both good and bad.
That's especially true with our weekly power rankings, as this exercise is not meant to simply be a mirror of the current standings.
Instead it's a fluid process, with teams rising and falling based on where they were ranked the previous week. If a team keeps winning, it will keep climbing—it's as simple as that.
This early in the season, preseason expectations and long-term outlook still play a role in where a team falls, though the more games we get into the season, the less of a factor that becomes.
So two weeks into the 2016 season, here is a look at where all 30 MLB teams stand.
