Thursday BP: Predict the NL West standings
Briefly

In predicting the NL West standings for 2025, the author categorizes the teams into four distinct tiers. The Los Angeles Dodgers are placed at the top tier, indicating their strong performance, while the Colorado Rockies sit at the bottom tier, indicating sustained struggles. The author anticipates the Arizona Diamondbacks will be in the second tier, alongside the San Diego Padres, with the San Francisco Giants in a third tier despite some optimism after a disappointing offseason. The predictions starkly reflect the current trajectory of these teams and the uncertainty involved in such forecasts.
I predict the NL West standings in 2025 will feature the Los Angeles Dodgers at the top, followed by the Arizona Diamondbacks, San Francisco Giants, San Diego Padres, and Colorado Rockies.
Despite optimism about the Giants, I anticipate they will be third in the division, slightly ahead of the inconsistent Padres and struggling Rockies.
The Los Angeles Dodgers remain the dominant team in the NL West, while the Rockies are clearly placed at the bottom tier of the division.
Predicting the future standings accurately is tricky, but current divisions into tiers help frame the discussion of where each team may land.
