Let's have some fun. Bold predictions for 2025. Up next on Fantasy Baseball today in five.

Welcome into FPT5 on Saturday, September 14th. I am, for example, joined by Scott White, and Scott actually has an article which is live on the website

CVSports.com with 20 bold predictions for next season.

I have chosen five of them.

Scott doesn't know which five I chose.

So let's jump in.

Up first, Spencer Schwellenbach

is better than Spencer Strider.

Ah, yeah, this is one of those bold predictions that I'm not sure I actually believe, but I'm making a point here.

I'm making a point that Spencer Schwellenbach legitimately has a potential just like

Spencer Strider does. I'm not worried about Spencer Strider. I don't want anybody

to take this the wrong way. He doesn't actually he didn't actually have ligament

damage in that

elbow remember just had a bone spur that was putting pressure on the

ligament ended up having internal bracing surgery I think I'll be fine

for opening day I think it'll be fine for opening day. I think it'll be good. But Schwellenbach has elite strike throwing

ability and elite swing and missability. Since he began getting more swinging strikes in the second half,

you take that rate, you take the overall strike percentage,

and the only two pitchers who rank as high

in those two categories of Schwellenbach

down the stretch here, I've been Terx Gueble and Shoda Imanaga.

Next up, Lawrence Butler has a higher combined home run
