The 2025 MLB season is shaping up to be a wild ride, and the latest playoff odds have sparked some intriguing debates. Let's dive into the projections and see where we stand on a few teams that could defy expectations.
First up, the Orioles. With a projected win total of just 83 and playoff odds under 50%, many are scratching their heads. Are the projections underestimating the talent in Baltimore? After back-to-back seasons of 101 and 91 wins, can we really expect them to take a step back? Or is the loss of key players like Corbin Burnes and the potential struggles of young stars like Jackson Holliday a sign of trouble ahead?
Then there's the Braves, projected for under 93 wins despite being a favorite in the NL East. With a roster that boasts stars like Ronald Acuña Jr. and Spencer Strider, can they really fall short of expectations? Or are the concerns about their pitching depth and the need for bounce-back seasons from key players valid?
And what about the Tigers? With a projection of over 83 wins and a sneaky good rotation, could they be the surprise team in the AL? Or are they just another team in the muddled middle, destined to disappoint?
Finally, the White Sox are projected for a dismal under 62 wins. After a record-setting loss season, can they really be that bad again? Or is there a glimmer of hope for a turnaround?
Let’s hear your thoughts! Which teams do you think are being underestimated or overestimated? Do you have bold predictions for any of these squads? Share your insights and let’s get the conversation rolling!
