Team Spotlights (2026)

Los Angeles Dodgers (-375)

The Dodgers have significantly strengthened their relief corps by signing elite closer Edwin Díaz to a three-year deal and re-signing veteran infielder Miguel Rojas to a one-year contract for added shortstop and infield depth, while welcoming back cornerstone players such as Shohei Ohtani, Mookie Betts, and Yoshinobu Yamamoto. The key storyline centers on stabilizing the bullpen following 2025’s inconsistencies and pursuing a healthier overall roster to chase a historic three-peat as defending back-to-back World Series champions.

San Diego Padres (+550)

The Padres are shaping up strongly for 2026 with multiple re-signings in the rotation, including a three-year deal for a starter and one-year pacts for others, plus the addition of infielder Sung-Mun Song on a four-year contract and new relievers; key returnees like Yu Darvish, Michael King, and Mason Miller provide continuity, though Dylan Cease departed by signing with Toronto. A central storyline is the maturation of their bullpen and offense, building on 2025’s near-miss to finally capitalize on Dodger vulnerabilities.

San Francisco Giants (+1000)

The Giants reinforced their pitching staff by signing starters Adrian Houser and Tyler Mahle, while adding relievers Jason Foley and Sam Hentges on one-year deals, and rely on returning standouts like Rafael Devers to anchor the lineup. The storyline focuses on achieving consistency after 2025’s highs and lows, leveraging a threatening roster—with improved pitching depth and offensive firepower—to emerge as annual contenders in the NL West.

Arizona Diamondbacks (+1200)

The Diamondbacks are shaping up for 2026 by adding pitching depth with two- and one-year starter deals, including bringing back Merrill Kelly for 2 years at $40M after trading him at the 2025 deadline, and re-signing their catcher, complemented by the return of breakout star Geraldo Perdomo and a rebuilt bullpen. The key narrative is a bounce-back from 2025’s chaos, harnessing young talent and post-deadline resilience to climb above .500.

Colorado Rockies (+25000)

The Rockies face an uphill rebuild with no major acquisitions noted yet, though they retain emerging names from their prospect pool amid losses like a reliever trade; the focus remains on developing young arms and hitters to address systemic weaknesses. The overarching storyline is escaping the depths of 2025’s historic futility through foundational changes in pitching and offense.

2025 NL West Results

The 2025 NL West division unfolded as a compelling duel at the top, with the Los Angeles Dodgers holding off a persistent challenge from the San Diego Padres to claim the title by just three games in a tightly contested race. While the Giants and Diamondbacks lingered around .500 without mounting a serious threat, the Rockies suffered through a historically dismal campaign marked by record-setting futility on the mound and in the standings. Overall, the division highlighted the enduring dominance of the Dodgers amid injuries, contrasted by emerging competitiveness from the Padres and stark underperformance elsewhere.

NL West Team Overview (2025)

• Los Angeles Dodgers (93–69): Despite expectations of dominance, the Dodgers navigated a season fraught with pitching injuries, where only Yoshinobu Yamamoto and Clayton Kershaw made 20 or more starts, leading to a shaky bullpen and lineup inconsistencies; however, stars like Mookie Betts (late-season OPS surge over .900) and Shohei Ohtani powered them to the division win and a World Series repeat.

• San Diego Padres (90–72): The Padres secured consecutive playoff berths thanks to a dominant bullpen that led the majors in win probability added and timely deadline trades that bolstered the offense; key contributors like Mason Miller anchored the relief corps, while the rotation featuring Dylan Cease and Yu Darvish showed potential despite uneven regular-season form, positioning them as close challengers but ultimately falling short of the division crown.

• San Francisco Giants (81–81): Hovering around .500 in Buster Posey’s first year overseeing baseball operations, the Giants struggled in head-to-head matchups, going 4-9 against the Dodgers and 3-10 against the Padres; the trade for Rafael Devers provided a productive bat, though his adjustment to Oracle Park’s dimensions tempered his impact, contributing to their failure to reach the postseason.

• Arizona Diamondbacks (80–82): The Diamondbacks endured a chaotic year, trading key veterans like Merrill Kelly and Eugenio Suarez at the deadline when below .500, yet remarkably stayed in wild card contention thanks to standout play from Geraldo Perdomo, who approached 7 WAR; the bullpen’s record 17 different save earners underscored the instability that led to their sub-.500 finish.

• Colorado Rockies (43–119): The Rockies plummeted to near-historic lows with 119 losses, featuring a starting rotation on pace for the worst ERA in modern history and a league-worst run differential of minus-405; lacking standout performers, the team’s across-the-board failures in pitching and offense cemented their last-place collapse.
