MLB 2025 Season

MayDay10

Cleveland won the Division title.  Great season for a team not expected to compete for a year or 2.  Terry Francona is a national treasure.

Kyle Tucker keeps hitting for you guys and the baseball world doesn't notice... Sad.

I know it. He'll get a nice extension in the offseason, which will be great for the team long term. He may open a lot of eyes in the postseason.

Guy#1:  "Aaron Judge tied the REAL home run record."
Guy#2: "No Hall of Famer player has ever hit 73 home runs in a season."
My brain: "Who's gonna tell him?"
Me: "No Hall of Fame player has ever hit 61 home runs in a season, either."

73 is the record but yeah, no HOFer hit 61 either, lol!

If it wasn't for Judge this year, yes I would give Ohtani the MVP again.  30+ HR and a 2.35 ERA?  Unless a record is broken if he plays like this I'd give it every year to him.

Hard to argue with that & I agree. It'll be interesting to see how long he can stay at this level with both pitching and hitting.

Now we have next year...

If, and like Wobbie says, I say this every year...  IF we can pull together a season where the stars stay healthy like in the beginning even when we didn't have Rendon, the Halos can compete.

I still believe dammit!

Congrats to Seattle for making the playoffs for the first time in like 21 years. Now longest playoff drought is the Phillis. Hopefully they end that this season as well.

ohtani gets to spend another year in exile.

Wobbie asked the question. It's clearly not Scherzer as he wasn't a Giant.

Bum was one…

I would guess it's a reliever, but no clue who it is.

trout has 39Hrs...  If he can just stay healthy... He would have had 50 hr this year.

Oh Mr Judge?  The world is waiting on you.  Please hit 62.  Thanks.
