Cubs and Wrigley Field Return to All-Star Spotlight
The Cubs open the 2027 season at home against the Cleveland Guardians on March 25. They will also host the Cardinals early in the year. But the crown jewel of their schedule is the All-Star Game on July 13, nearly 37 years after Wrigley last hosted baseball's showcase event.
The Home Run Derby on July 12 kicks off the festivities. The All-Star break runs July 12–15, giving players and fans a four-day celebration in Chicago. The Cubs' home schedule also includes a series against the Cardinals at Wrigley as part of the league's rivalry-focused scheduling.
Yankees, Blue Jays, and Orioles Kick Off the AL East
The New York Yankees host the Toronto Blue Jays on March 25 to open the season, according to AOL. It is a quick start for one of baseball's fiercest rivalries. The Blue Jays then host the Seattle Mariners in their home opener on April 2, and close the season at home against the Tampa Bay Rays, City News Toronto reported.
The Baltimore Orioles begin 2027 on the road at Tampa Bay before returning home. Their first homestand starts March 31 against the Blue Jays. The Padres will also host the Orioles in an interleague weekend series at Petco Park during the season, according to San Diego Union-Tribune.
Guardians and Astros Map Out Busy Road Schedules
The Cleveland Guardians start 2027 with a six-game road trip. They play the Cubs from March 25–27 before heading elsewhere. Their home opener is April 1 against the Yankees. Cleveland's schedule features eight home interleague series and a 10-game homestand in July.
The Houston Astros open at home against the Texas Rangers on March 25. Their most demanding stretch comes in early June, with a three-city road trip from June 4–13. They visit Tampa Bay, Pittsburgh, and Detroit in that span. Two long homestands follow the All-Star break to close out the summer.
Royals Mark Earliest Opening Day in Franchise History
The Kansas City Royals will open March 25 at home against the Minnesota Twins. That makes it the earliest Opening Day in franchise history, according to Kansas City Royals via KMBC. The Royals will also play six games against the St. Louis Cardinals — three at Busch Stadium and three at Kauffman Center — as part of a balanced 162-game slate.
Kansas City's schedule also includes trips west and south to face teams like the Dodgers. The Royals hold their All-Star break from July 12–15, lining up with the league-wide break for the game at Wrigley Field. It is a full, competitive slate for a Royals team looking to build on recent momentum.
