1. Los Angeles Dodgers

A lot has been said about how much money they have spent this past offseason. Even with their offseason splurges, they haven’t been back to the World Series since winning it in 2020.

2. Arizona Diamondbacks

They shocked the baseball world by getting to the World Series last year. With the way their offseason went, they want to prove it wasn’t a fluke.

3. San Francisco Giants

It could all go well and they get back into the Postseason or could come crashing down. Bringing in Bob Melvin as the manager would suggest that it will work out.

4. San Diego Padres

For all that this franchise has done the past few seasons, it’s probably best that they fly under the radar.

5. Colorado Rockies

If not for a draft lottery now, they would be guaranteed the number one pick in the 2025 MLB Draft.
