The Royals Need More From Their Supporting Staff This Year

4 days ago | justbaseball.com | Eric Treuden

There hasn’t been a whole lot going right for this year’s Kansas City Royals. Coming off of an 86-win showing in 2024 that resulted in their first playoff berth since 2015, the Royals entered the current campaign with some sky-high expectations. It’s not everyday you see a team go from 56 wins one year to 86 the next, but this young and exciting squad made it happen. Through their first 22 games in the current season, things are looking bleak to say the least.
Are the Padres the Real Team to Beat in the NL West?

4 days ago | justbaseball.com | Eric Treuden

For followers of the San Diego Padres, life is good right about now. Your team is 15-6, which is good for a .714 winning-percentage. That number tops the charts in all of baseball, and the Padres also own MLB’s second-best run differential at +34, coming in at eight runs below the Chicago Cubs. The Padres have come out of the gate smoking hot, but their major issue is that … so has the rest of the NL West.
Washington Nationals: Dylan Crews talks approach, MacKenzie Gore dazzles

4 days ago | justbaseball.com | Kevin Henry

DENVER — If Dylan Crews was looking for a place to break out of his early-season offensive funk, Coors Field proved to be the perfect venue on Saturday. Entering Saturday’s game with no extra-base hits on the campaign, Crews accounted for a pair of home runs and a double as the Washington Nationals held on for a 12-11 win over the Colorado Rockies in the first game of a three-game set that was pushed back on Friday because of snow. For Crews, however, it wasn’t just about the extra-base hits.
Twins To Promote Top Prospect Luke Keaschall for MLB Debut

6 days ago | justbaseball.com | Leo Morgenstern

The Minnesota Twins are bringing in a reinforcement. A 7-12 record puts the Twins in fourth place in the AL Central. Their pitchers have a perfectly respectable 3.74 ERA. Yet, their bats have been woeful. They have scored just 3.5 runs per game. They rank among the bottom four AL clubs in all three triple-slash categories, while their collective 82 wRC+ is the third-worst in the Junior Circuit. To make matters worse, the Twins are navigating numerous injuries to key position players.
Top Prospect Edgar Quero Debuts for White Sox

6 days ago | justbaseball.com | Leo Morgenstern

The Chicago White Sox had a new catcher yesterday afternoon. Edgar Quero, Chicago’s highest-ranked position player prospect on the Just Baseball Top 100, received his call to the show on Thursday. He had hit .333 with an .856 OPS and a 144 wRC+ through his first 15 games at Triple-A Charlotte this season. Evidently, the White Sox decided he was ready for the next step. All things considered, it probably wasn’t the debut Quero hoped for. The White Sox took a beating from the Athletics, losing 8-0.
Can the Blue Jays Continue to Impress in the AL East?

1 week ago | justbaseball.com | Eric Treuden

After laying an egg in 2024, the Toronto Blue Jays lost a whole lot of believers around the industry heading into the new year. The club has always looked so solid on paper, but the follow-through just hasn’t quite been there. Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and his contract extension drama dominated the headlines, but player and club came together shortly after the season began and he’s now going to be a Blue Jay for life.
Ben Rice Is Cooking

Stats updated prior to first pitch on Tuesday, April 15. The New York Yankees have been an offensive juggernaut to kick off the 2025 campaign. Entering play on Tuesday, they lead the majors with a collective 142 wRC+ and an .844 OPS. To put those incredible numbers in perspective, Juan Soto has a 138 wRC+ and an .829 OPS through his first 16 games with the Mets. You could replace the 2025 Yankees with a lineup of nine Juan Sotos, and somehow, the offense would be worse.
Corbin Carroll Is Doing It All

1 week ago | justbaseball.com | Leo Morgenstern

Corbin Carroll stole a base on Sunday. Is that worth reporting? Usually not. Carroll has swiped 92 bases throughout his brief MLB career. Dating back to the day of his debut, he ranks third in stolen bags. Meanwhile, his sprint speed has never ranked below the 96th percentile. By the FanGraphs baserunning metric (BsR), he was the most valuable baserunner in the sport in each of the past two seasons. This is a guy who knows how to run.

What to Make of the Most Talked-About Bat in Baseball

1 week ago | justbaseball.com | Rachael Millanta

It’s been just two weeks since Opening Day, but it only took one series for a defining subplot of the 2025 season to emerge: torpedo bats. The controversial new equipment immediately stole headlines when the New York Yankees hit an incredible 15 home runs across their first three-game series of the season, with a number of the slugging players — including Jazz Chisholm Jr., Anthony Volpe, Austin Wells, Cody Bellinger, and Paul Goldschmidt — swinging torpedo bats.
