2025 MLB Award Predictions: Surprising Contenders Poised to Shake Up MVP, Cy Young, and Rookie Honors

The Dark Horse: Atlanta Braves young right-hander Spencer Schwellenbach has rather incredible control – his walk rate was an elite 4.4% as a rookie – considering he throws six pitches on a regular basis. In his first 21 MLB starts last year, he posted a 3.35 ERA/3.29 FIP with a K/9 of 9.2. Is he the next Atlanta starter to make a major impact early in his career?

AL Rookie of the Year: Jackson Jobe, Detroit Tigers 

Really, take your pick. Jobe is considered the top pitching prospect in the game by some evaluators, so he’s a solid choice. In Boston, phenom Kristian Campbell got the nod to start the season in the bigs, and both Roman Anthony and Marcelo Meyer are just waiting for their shot at regular MLB at-bats. If Jasson Dominguez can stay healthy, he could have a big year for the Yankees. The guy who is our dark horse only has that status because the Royals seem intent on keeping him in the minors for at least a couple months. The AL is stacked with rookies who could make a huge impact this year (hi, Kumar Rocker!).
