MLB's top prospects clash in 2025 All-Star Futures Game
Digest more
Catch a glimpse of Major League Baseball's next generation of stars – before they hit the big time – at the annual Futures Game this weekend.
The 2025 edition – held Saturday at Atlanta’s Truist Park – will be no different. These are some of the top moments from this year’s Futures Game, which features 33 players on MLB Pipeline’s Top 100 Prospects list, including eight of the top 19:
• There were a couple of players who did underwhelm in the game. Marlins lefty Thomas White returned to the Futures Game, and for the second year in a row, he had trouble throwing strikes. He was 95-98 with a slider at 80-84, premium stuff, but half his pitches were called balls and they were bad misses at that.
Garin Cecchini, Anthony Ranaudo and Bogaerts - Cecchini played 35 career games in Boston before getting released. He never reached the bigs again. Ranaudo, who was once viewed as a frontline starter, reached the Majors with unremarkable results and was traded for Robbie Ross.
Stock futures were little changed on Wednesday evening after the S&P 500 recouped some of its losses from this week's tariff-fueled slide. S&P 500 futures traded just below the flatline, along with Nasdaq 100 futures. Futures tied to the Dow Jones Industrial Average were down 37 points, or less than 0.1%.
