After a long, strange low season, the regular season is the Major League baseball here.

It is only a matter of time before we can see some of our favorite players in their new houses. Juan Soto with the New York Mets, Corbin Burnes with the Arizona Diamondbacks, Willy Adames with the San Francisco Giants are sure that they will be on the way, but the first will see Taner Scott and Blake Snell as new members of the Los Angeles Dodgers and Kyle Tucker for Chicago Cubs.

The Dodgers and Cubs will start the regular season with two games in Japan from Tuesday, March 18. Of course, the remaining 28 MLB teams will not take part.

Here you will find everything you need to know about MLB's opening day:

When is MLB opening day for everyone else?

The traditional MLB opening day will take place on Thursday, March 27, with 28 teams in action. Although the Dodgers and Cubs already have two games, they will still take part in the opening competitions, with the Dodgers facing the Detroit Tigers at home while the Cubs will play the Diamondbacks in Arizona.

The only teams that do not play games on March 27 are the Tampa Bay Rays and Colorado Rockies. After Hurricane Milton devastated the area of ​​Tampa in the offseason, the rays were given an additional day to prepare for the regular 2025 season when they set up their new, temporary home in George M. Steinbrenner Field, the spring training home for the New York Yankees.
