The Arizona Diamondbacks, led by Corbin Burnes, prepare for the 2025 MLB season with playoff aspirations.

The 2025 Major League Baseball season is on the horizon, kicking off with a two-game series between the Los Angeles Dodgers and Chicago Cubs in Tokyo, Japan. Following this international opener, the regular season will commence on March 27 and run through September 28.

The Arizona Diamondbacks, fresh off a strong 2023 season that culminated in a World Series appearance, are gearing up for another playoff push. Key offseason acquisitions include star pitcher Corbin Burnes and first baseman Josh Naylor from the Cleveland Guardians, filling the gaps left by Christian Walker and Joc Pederson. Despite these moves, oddsmakers remain cautious, placing the Diamondbacks at +3000 odds to win the World Series and +1100 for the National League pennant, ranking them sixth in the NL behind heavyweights like the Dodgers and Braves.

The Dodgers are heavily favored to dominate the NL West with odds as low as -650, bolstered by significant signings including Blake Snell and Roki Sasaki. Other notable offseason developments include the Boston Red Sox addressing their pitching needs and the New York Yankees navigating Cole`s contract opt-out, while the Guardians face uncertainty with Shane Bieber`s potential free agency after Tommy John surgery.
