The Los Angeles Dodgers won the eighth World Series title in franchise history by defeating the New York Yankees.
While the Dodgers’ lineup already looks dominant on paper, they are still looking to be aggressive this offseason.
The Dodgers signed free agent starter Blake Snell to a five-year, $182 million contract.
MLB analyst Harold Reynolds has revealed his thoughts on who will win the National League Cy Young Award in 2025.
“I think it’s Blake Snell,” Reynolds said via MLB Network’s “X.”

Snell entered the league in 2016 with the Tampa Bay Rays, and the Dodgers will be his fourth different team in his tenth MLB season.
In 2023, Snell won the NL Cy Young Award with the San Diego Padres, starting 32 games and posting a 14-9 record with a 2.25 ERA and 234 strikeouts in 180.0 innings.
Snell also won the American League Cy Young Award with the Rays in 2018, starting 31 games and posting a 21-5 record with a 1.89 ERA and 221 strikeouts in 180.2 innings.
Reynolds predicts Snell will win the award again in 2025 because he has been dominant and is now on the best team in baseball.
The Dodgers are trying to win their first World Series title in franchise history in 2025.
If Snell can stay healthy through the 2025 season, he should have a good shot at competing for the NL Cy Young Award.
While the Dodgers have already made some moves this offseason, there’s a good chance they’ll stay aggressive until the 2025 season begins.
