Well this will be my last news and links piece of the 2025 regular season and while it’s been a frustrating one, there have still been plenty of fun things to watch. Drake Baldwin has been the best rookie in the NL and has had a really impressive season for a rookie catcher, complicating the future of the franchise at the position, but adding another core player to a still great position-player group. Spencer Schwellenbach further solidified himself as a top young pitcher in MLB. Hurston Waldrep reinvented himself to be a viable MLB starter with upside. Ronald Acuna returned to baseball and did a lot of cool Ronald Acuna things. Matt Olson was the best first baseman in baseball. Joey Wentz returned to Atlanta and was a playable back-end starter for a couple months, adding some promise to his journeyman career. Jurickson Profar got suspended, but looked like a good offensive player on his return. It’s important to enjoy and appreciate the fun things in sports, even when things don’t go the way we wish as fans.
