MLB Predictions 2025
Embedded Files
In a year with all eyes focused on the Los Angeles Dodgers possibly winning the 2024 World Series championship, they did exactly as many predicted.
This year 2025 the Dodgers could be even better.
With the World Champion Dodgers adding a young Japanese phenom plus a proven left-handed ace to this Los Angeles squad, it could be the greatest team ever assembled.
A close inspection of this team that includes Shohei Ohtani, perhaps the greatest baseball player ever seen, along with future Hall of Fame candidates Clayton Kershaw, Mookie Betts, Freddie Freeman and maybe Brett Snell, this 2025 Dodgers version could be chasing other powerhouse teams like the 1998 New York Yankees, the 1975 Cincinnati Reds, and the 1927 Yankees as the greatest team ever.
Or, they could just be a paper tiger.
Fernando Valenzuela R.I.P.
Fernando Valenzuela never sought fame or glory, but once you handed him a baseball he turned into some mythic Aztec warrior with a stoicism uncommon for a teen.
Valenzuela passed away on Tuesday Oct. 22. He was 63.
It was 1980 when the kid from Navojoa, Mexico first pitched for the Los Angeles Dodgers who were in the middle of a divisional race with the Houston Astros. Nobody knew a thing about him, but he performed well for a total of 17 innings that September.
The next year he would stun the world.

Pound for Pound Men 2024
Terence Crawford continues to reign as the top fighter pound for pound in the world. Though his win over Israil Madrimov was a closely fought contest, the Nebraska fighter out-maneuvered the super welterweight champion for the win in Los Angeles.
Others on the lost are Japan’s Naoya Inoue and Junto Nakatani, plus Saul “Canelo” Alvarez remains a steadfast member of the club.
American fighters such as Jesse “Bam” Rodriguez and David Benavidez are new editions along with Russian light heavyweights such as Dmitrii Bivol and Artur Beterbiev.
