With 100 games played so far in the 2025 MLB season, one team is leading the way after hitting the 60-win milestone.
Not the Dodgers or the Yankees: This is the first team to reach 60 wins in the MLB this season
With most teams having played around 100 games so far in the 2025 MLB season, we’ve reached a point of the season where a handful of teams are clearly showing their candidacy as potential World Series winners come October.
With much of the media focusing on the potential MLB record in the making by the Colorado Rockies who are on track to write an undesired page in the baseball history books.
As things stand, The Rox are set to break a MLB Modern Era (since 1901) record for the most defeats in a regular season.
In 2024, the Chicago White Sox broke the record previously held by the 1962 New York Mets when the recorded just 41 wins and 121 losses (.253 winning percentage). After 99 games, the Rockies have won only 24 and tasted defeat on 75 occasions.
Rampant Tigers
On the other end of the scale, the Detroit Tigers have become the first team to reach the 60-win milestone for the season to date. Much of their success is thanks to their pitching with Tarik Skubal, in particular, is having an outstanding year, with a 2.19 ERA, 10 wins and 164 strikeouts
Unlike previous seasons where the offense was sluggish, the Tigers are now backing up their elite pitching with a strong hitting performance. As a team they are in the top-10 in all major batting statistics.
The 2025 Detroit Tigers have a well-rounded team, with strong performances from both their pitching rotation and their batting lineup, along with solid defense, like Javier Baez’s spectacular play at shortstop. Their outfielders are producing with the bats as well.
