The 2025 MLB season features Dodgers as favorites, with significant playoff odds disparities among teams like the Red Sox and Orioles.

As the 2025 MLB season approaches, projections and power rankings are stirring excitement among fans and analysts alike. The Los Angeles Dodgers, fresh off their 2024 World Series victory, are favored to dominate the league once again. Their strong roster positions them as the team to beat, while the Philadelphia Phillies, New York Yankees, and San Diego Padres also rank highly in the latest assessments.

However, disparities in playoff odds have emerged for several teams. The Boston Red Sox face a stark contrast in projections, with FanGraphs giving them a 51.0% chance of making the playoffs, while PECOTA forecasts only a 13.7% chance. The Baltimore Orioles present another intriguing case, as PECOTA predicts a 75.6% playoff likelihood, contrasting sharply with FanGraphs` 44.0% estimate. Other teams, including the Chicago Cubs and Detroit Tigers, also show notable differences in their playoff projections.

In the Caribbean Series 2025, Mexico has showcased its prowess by finishing the group stage with a perfect 4-0 record. Following them are Venezuela, the Dominican Republic, and Puerto Rico, each with a 2-2 record, while Japan struggled, ending with a 0-4 mark. The semifinals featured the Dominican Republic overcoming Venezuela and Mexico defeating Puerto Rico, setting the stage for a thrilling final showdown between Mexico and the Dominican Republic.

Looking at the NL West, the Dodgers are projected to secure the division title, with the Arizona Diamondbacks expected to be their closest competitors. The Diamondbacks have bolstered their lineup with the addition of Corbin Burnes and a trade for Josh Naylor, enhancing their chances in a competitive division.
