Aaron Judge leads MLB right fielders ahead of the 2025 season, while Hall of Fame candidates generate excitement.

As the 2025 MLB season approaches, Aaron Judge stands out as the top right fielder, having returned to his natural position. Last season, Judge showcased his exceptional talent with an impressive 11 fWAR and a staggering 218 wRC+, making him unrivaled in the league. His performance is a significant factor as the New York Yankees gear up for the upcoming season.

Juan Soto, expected to play right field for the New York Mets, follows closely behind Judge with an 8.1 fWAR, primarily due to his outstanding batting skills. Other notable right fielders include Kyle Tucker, who managed a 4.2 fWAR in just 78 games, and Corbin Carroll, who rebounded from a slow start to finish with a solid 4.1 fWAR. The competition among these players sets the stage for an exciting season ahead.

In addition to player rankings, the 2025 Baseball Hall of Fame election is generating buzz. The announcement of the results will be broadcast across multiple platforms, including MLB Network and MLB.com. Candidates like Alex Rodríguez, Barry Bonds, and Ichiro Suzuki are under the spotlight, with Ichiro tracking at 100% and appearing to be a lock for induction. CC Sabathia, a left-handed pitcher with 3,000 strikeouts and 250 wins, is also in the mix, adding to the anticipation surrounding the Hall of Fame announcements.

Meanwhile, the Empire Baseball League is gearing up for its season, with current standings showing all teams at zero wins, losses, or ties as they prepare for the upcoming competition.
