With the 2026 MLB season underway, notable surprises include Munetaka Murakami leading in home runs, Jo Adell’s exceptional defense, and Bryce Elder emerging as a Cy Young candidate. However, several stars are underperforming, such as Fernando Tatis Jr. with no home runs, Bo Bichette struggling at .226, and Steven Kwan hitting .214. Cal Raleigh and Marcell Ozuna also show concerning stats, with Raleigh hitting .164 and Ozuna .197. Despite these slumps, some players may rebound with minor adjustments.
