MLB 2025: Shocking Division Underdogs Set to Rewrite the Season’s Destiny

MLB 2025: Shocking Division Underdogs Set to Rewrite the Season’s Destiny

Opta Analyst’s Projected Winner: Houston Astros (48.4%)


Fagan’s Winner: Philadelphia Phillies

As currently constructed, the Phillies are the most complete team in a very good division, and they’re healthier than the Mets or Atlanta Braves right now. In the race for 95 or more wins, which is what it’s probably going to take to win the NL East, health matters when it comes to division predictions. 

In Philadelphia, Zack Wheeler is still elite (see below), and filling out the rotation with Aaron Nola, Jesus Luzardo, Christopher Sanchez and Ranger Suarez is pretty impressive. If Atlanta is still hanging around when they get both Ronald Acuna Jr. and Spencer Strider back, though? Don’t be surprised to see the Braves vault up the standings. Same for the Mets with Sean Manaea and Frankie Montas.
