NL Central Race Heating Up Leading into Trade Deadline
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. For the first time in nearly two months, there is a tie atop the National League Central. With the Milwaukee Brewers winning on Sunday and the Chicago Cubs dropping a game to the Boston Red Sox, the two teams are now tied for first place in the division. It is the first time Milwaukee has had a share of first place since April 11, which is also the last day that Chicago did not hold sole possession of first place in the division. CHICAGO, ILLINOIS - JUNE 19: Trevor Megill #29 of the Milwaukee Brewers reacts after the final out of a game against the Chicago Cubs at Wrigley Field on June 19, 2025 in Chicago, Illinois. CHICAGO, ILLINOIS - JUNE 19: Trevor Megill #29 of the Milwaukee Brewers reacts after the final out of a game against the Chicago Cubs at Wrigley Field on June 19, 2025 in Chicago, Brewers entered Monday riding a 10-game winning streak that has seen two sweeps of the Los Angeles Dodgers and the Washington Nationals. Milwaukee has been firing on all cylinders and its second sweep of the Dodgers in less than two weeks proved that the Brew Crew is capable of hanging with anyone. Final: Brewers 6, Dodgers 5 Remarkable. The Brewers are the first team to sweep a season series of at least 6 with the Dodgers since 2006. And they did it in a span of two weeks. And they've won 10 straight. And they're tied for the best record in baseball. The record: 59-40 — Curt Hogg (@CyrtHogg) July 20, 2025 It would seem on the surface that the Cubs have been playing bad baseball and that's why Milwaukee has been able to track them down. That certainly isn't the case, though, as Chicago's last two series have been series wins over the Boston Red Sox and New York Yankees. It's more a case that the Brewers are playing so well, and they've capitalized greatly when the Cubs lose, which has happened just twice in their last seven games. Too many walks. Too many left on. Back-to-back series wins for the Cubs and a successful start to the home stand.@LukeStuckmeyer and @Wells15Kevin have your postgame show in moments! — CHGO Cubs (@CHGO_Cubs) July 20, 2025 The division race will sort itself out, as beginning July 28, the two teams are scheduled to play eight times in 24 days, including five games in four days in mid-August. The trade deadline is sandwiched between the two series, so both teams could look a bit different during the five-game series. Regardless of how similar or different the teams look after the trade deadline, the NL Central race is shaping up to be one of the best to keep tabs on for the remainder of the season.

MLB playoffs 2025: NL standings shape up for 'spicy' pennant race
The next two-plus months will shake things out, and with the division leads frontrunners Philadelphia (a half-game), Chicago (one game) and Los Angeles (5 1/2 games) hold, nothing's guaranteed. "It's a spicy division this year, that's for sure," says Milwaukee Brewers closer Trevor Megill of the NL Central, where his club lurks a game behind the Cubs. "The Cubs have a fantastic product out on the field this year and so do some other teams in our division. "It's going to come down to that last game." Slim as some margins are, we'll give those leaders a pass and break down the half-dozen clubs aiming to run them down - or at least fight off the others for one of three wild-card spots: Milwaukee Brewers: Grit and grind Standing: 56-40, one game behind Chicago in NL Central, four-game lead for wild card spot. What's their deal?: They've once again outkicked expectations, with manager Pat Murphy guiding a wild mix of youth and veterans and All-Star pitcher Freddy Peralta helming a rotation that has unleashed touted rookie Jacob Misiorowski for five starts - with the baseball world suddenly captivated by what may come next. Before the trade deadline: Nine of 12 games against playoff contenders Seattle, the Los Angeles Dodgers and, from July 28-30, the first-place Cubs. Why the Brewers?: "The way the Brewers run themselves and the research they do on people, personalities - that goes into a lot of what we're seeing right now. Power of friendship, right? We've got a college-minded coach at the helm and I think a lot of our guys are just that gritty, tough, and we go and get after it. I think that's our biggest strength: A lot of guys that like each other and a lot of guys willing to put their body on the line every night." - Megill New York Mets: Help has arrived Standing: 55-42, half-game behind Philadelphia in NL East, 2 1/2 -game lead for wild card spot. What's their deal?: An encouraging July got even brighter when injured pitchers Sean Manaea and Kodai Senga made their returns in their final series of the first half, with Senga pitching four scoreless innings at Kansas City. Juan Soto has shaken the new-team blues, with 12 homers and a .312/.450/.642 line in his last 35 games after going .229/.367/.430 in his first 62. Before the trade deadline: Nine of 12 games against NL contenders Cincinnati, San Francisco and San Diego. Why the Mets?: "We've got talent, we've got grit, we've got chemistry - those are all things you need to win ballgames. We've shown some obviously really great moments of consistency. But we haven't been perfect. We've had some injuries, but we're getting a ton of guys back. When you combine talent and attention to detail and grit, it makes for a winning ballclub." - Pete Alonso San Diego Padres: A road hurdle ahead Standing: 52-44, 5 1/2 games behind Los Angeles in NL West, half-game lead for wild card spot. What's their deal?: Injuries have slowed them much of the year, with sophomore Jackson Merrill struggling after a pair of IL trips, pitcher Yu Darvish making his season debut just before the All-Star break and Michael King out until August with shoulder irritation. Manny Machado is playing like an MVP. The bullpen produced three All-Stars. Before the trade deadline: A 10-game road trip to Washington, Miami and St. Louis, followed by a three-game showdown against the Mets. Why the Padres?: "We have the confidence and we're going to have a good second half. We're motivated to make the playoffs." - Robert Suarez San Francisco Giants: Time to get offensive Standing: 52-45, six games behind Los Angeles in NL West, half-game out of wild card spot. What's their deal?: It's torture all over again, as the pitching staff's 3.50 ERA ranks third in the majors but batters rank 26th with a .678 OPS, stirring memories of their 2010 champions' knack for winning close games. Rafael Devers has two homers and a .656 OPS in 25 games as a Giant, and along with Willy Adames must adjust from hitter-friendly climes to Oracle Park's batter-killing conditions, though both will benefit from Matt Chapman's return. Before the trade deadline: A six-game trip to Toronto and Atlanta and three at home against Pittsburgh. Why the Giants?: "We're getting Willy going, we got Chappy back, and if we can get Raffy going as well, that's great. Once we get our hitters going, we're going to be pretty hot. We play the most one-run games in baseball and I think that sets us up for success in the playoffs. There's a lot of close games. Our pitchers and our hitters are comfortable in those situations." - Robbie Ray St. Louis Cardinals: Might as well win the whole thing Standing: 51-46, 6 1/2 games behind Chicago in NL Central, 1 1/2 games out of wild card spot. What's their deal?: Written off for 2025 after a much-ballyhooed franchise "reset" and a winter spent failing to trade Nolan Arenado, the Cardinals that remained comprised a pretty good squad. Sonny Gray has pitched like an ace, Brendan Donovan - a 3-WAR player in the first half - has led their band of versatile position player pieces and DH Ivan Herrera has returned from injury after posting a .924 OPS in 43 games. Before the trade deadline: A six-game trip to Colorado and Arizona followed by a big four-game set at home against San Diego. Loser sells to the winner? Why the Cardinals?: "I think it's a group that's not afraid of anything. People learning how to go about their business in the big leagues and learning about who they are and that's what makes us scary. We just did all the things we had harped on in spring training: Taking care of the baseball, having quality at-bats, sticking to a team approach while also sticking to our individual approaches. I think our expectations were completely different than the ones set on us." - Donovan Cincinnati Reds: Youth movement, veteran guide Standing: 50-47, 7 1/2 games behind Chicago in NL Central, 2 1/2 games out of wild card berth. What's their deal?: The rotation ranks sixth in the NL with a 3.88 ERA but has had injury setbacks. All-Star Elly De La Cruz racked up 3.6 WAR while hitting 18 homers with 25 steals. Emilio Pagan solidified the closer role, posting 20 saves by the break. Manager Terry Francona just notched his 2,000th career win. Before the trade deadline: A six-game trip to the Mets and Nationals, followed by three with Tampa Bay. Why the Reds?: "We're a young team. I think we're getting closer to finding our true identity. I truly believe we have a good young core and have a good set of veterans to help the younger players. And our manager. I think that was a really good move for us. Brings in that calmness with firmness. I think we're going to continue to work, continue to show up and the results will show." - Abbott

MLB playoffs 2025: Why All-Stars think their teams will win in 'spicy' NL race
ATLANTA — In this era of Major League Baseball's expanded playoff field, one concept rings even truer: If you're over .500, you've got a chance. Yet in the National League, nine teams can make that claim, more than double the four American League squads taking that distinction into the symbolic start of the second half. The next two-plus months will shake things out, and with the division leads frontrunners Philadelphia (a half-game), Chicago (one game) and Los Angeles (5 ½ games) hold, nothing's guaranteed. 'It's a spicy division this year, that's for sure,' says Milwaukee Brewers closer Trevor Megill of the NL Central, where his club lurks a game behind the Cubs.

Rosenthal: Historic All-Star swing-off proved impossible to resist for players, fans
ATLANTA – I'll admit, I was skeptical. Highly skeptical. Thinking what I'm sure a lot of fans were thinking, and still might be thinking. A swing-off to end an All-Star Game? Just another silly Major League Baseball gimmick. But then I turned around as I prepared to interview Kyle Schwarber on Fox as he prepared for Round 2 of Tuesday night's swing-off. A good number of his National League teammates were standing behind him outside the dugout, loudly urging him on. Advertisement Baseball is a serious, $12 billion business. The daily competition is intense. But fans want players to remember they're playing a kid's game, and often grow frustrated when they don't. The first tie-breaking swing-off had players on both teams reacting as giddily as Little Leaguers. They spilled onto the field as the mini-Home Run Derby built to a crescendo, jumping, shouting, rejoicing. 'The AL side, I was looking at it like, they've got more guys on the line than we do. We've got to step it up a little bit,' Milwaukee Brewers reliever Trevor Megill said. Impressive that the All-Stars reacted so strongly, considering many of them had no idea what a swing-off even was until late in Tuesday night's game. The concept was adopted in the 2022 collective-bargaining agreement to guard against teams in the All-Star Game running out of pitchers. The 2002 game famously ended in such fashion, with former commissioner Bud Selig looking helpless as the teams left the field with the score tied 7-7 after 11 innings. Page 83 of the CBA details how the tiebreaker works in an All-Star Game tied after nine innings, not that any of the players read it. San Francisco Giants pitchers Logan Webb and Robbie Ray said they learned about the swing-off around the ninth, and they weren't the only ones. At least one NL player detected an immediate benefit – 'I saw (Houston Astros closer Josh) Hader getting loose, and I thought, this is better than facing Hader,' Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Corbin Carroll said. New York Mets closer Edwin Díaz, who allowed the tying run in the ninth on a 53.9 mph infield single by the Cleveland Guardians' Steven Kwan, took solace in his own reprieve. 'That was crazy. That was great. I think that was the best thing that happened in an All-Star Game,' Díaz said. 'I blew the game, but I was happy after I heard there was going to be a Home Run Derby.' By the end, the vast majority of players seemed on board with a format Schwarber likened to an NHL shootout, or a soccer game decided by penalty kicks. Advertisement Webb checked his phone afterward and opened a group text he maintains with other players around the league. Their consensus: We should never play an extra-inning game again. We should always end games just like that. New York Yankees second baseman Jazz Chisholm Jr. said the same thing, seemingly willing to banish the automatic runner on second base forever. The players were joking. We think. In the bottom of the ninth, NL manager Dave Roberts approached the Miami Marlins' Kyle Stowers about being part of the swing-off. To Stowers, Roberts might as well have been speaking a foreign language. 'He goes, 'Hey, just a heads-up, if we tie this game, there's going to be a Home Run Derby and you're in it,'' Stowers recalled. 'I thought they were messing with me the whole time.' Nope! The managers were required before the game to declare their three participants for the swing-off. Both Roberts and the Yankees' Aaron Boone focused on players they knew would be playing toward the end of the game, and approached them the day before. In grand All-Star tradition, the sport's two most famous sluggers, Shohei Ohtani and Aaron Judge, were long gone by the late innings. The current home-run leader, the Seattle Mariners' Cal Raleigh, also had been removed from the game. Stowers wasn't part of the original NL trio. Roberts wanted Eugenio Suárez, explaining that when the Arizona Diamondbacks slugger merely touches balls in batting practice, they go 400 feet. He also wanted Schwarber, a 2022 Home Run Derby participant, and Pete Alonso, a two-time Derby champ. The plan derailed when the Chicago White Sox's Shane Smith hit Suárez in the left pinky in the eighth inning. Suárez stayed in the game. X-rays would prove negative. But he wasn't about to risk further damage in the swing-off, a decision that surely was a relief to the Diamondbacks, not to mention fans who can't wait for their favorite team to take a run at Suárez at the trade deadline. Roberts has known Stowers, a fellow San Diego-area resident, since the outfielder was a teenager. Butch Smith, Roberts' coach at Rancho Buena Vista (Ca.) H.S., owns a batting cage that Stowers has worked out at for about 10 years. Roberts considers Smith a second father, and also is fond of Stowers. Advertisement So, Stowers it was to replace Suárez. Afterward, Roberts would take pride in his new nickname for Stowers, labeling his favorite Marlin, 'starfish.' He could laugh then. As Stowers prepared to hit, he did not even know the swing-off rules. 'They said three swings,' Stowers said. 'At first I thought it was three outs. Then I saw (Brent) Rooker and he took literally three swings.' Rooker, the leadoff man for the AL, proved an inspired choice by Boone. Raleigh knocked Rooker out of the Home Run Derby the previous night only on a ridiculous, possibly fictitious technicality. And it was Rooker who started the AL's comeback from a 6-0 deficit, hitting a three-run shot off the Giants' Randy Rodriguez. The Mariners' Randy Arozarena, whose postseason heroics in 2020 earned him the nickname, 'October Randy,' made sense as the second AL hitter. But Boone's selection of the Tampa Bay Rays' Jonathan Aranda as his anchor might earn him further ridicule from fire-breathing Yankees fans. Aranda has hit only 11 homers all season, and only 21 for his career. Rooker began the swing-off with two homers. Stowers, who admitted to being nervous, followed with one. Arozarena then popped one of his own to give the AL a 3-1 lead. Next came Schwarber. As Schwarber waited to hit, he grumbled to me that the last time he was in a Home Run Derby, he lost a first-round matchup to Albert Pujols. The year was 2022. Schwarber, on his way to leading the NL with 46 homers, was the top seed. Pujols, then 42, was in his final season. By Derby standards, it was a stunning upset. Self-deprecation, though, is one of Schwarber's many endearing qualities. Talking to him, you would never know he is one of the game's most feared sluggers, with more home runs since 2021 than anyone but Judge and Ohtani. Schwarber batted in the ninth inning against the Boston Red Sox's Aroldis Chapman, and broke his bat on a 99-mph sinker. For the swing-off, he needed a new bat. But fortunately, he was familiar with the NL's pitcher, Dodgers third-base coach Dino Ebel, from their time together during the 2023 World Baseball Classic. Ebel, in Schwarber's estimation, throws, 'great BP.' Advertisement 'Where do you want it?' Ebel asked Schwarber. 'Middle,' Schwarber replied. 'Gotcha,' Ebel said. Still Schwarber's goal was modest: Hit two home runs to tie the score and then have Alonso finish it off. Alonso, who skipped this year's Home Run Derby, eagerly awaited his chance. 'No doubt I was ready,' Alonso said. 'I was down in (the batting cage), whacking balls, getting hot. Now I know what it feels like to be a closer, to be potentially ready to come into a game.' As it turned out, Alonso's services weren't needed. Schwarber gave the NL the lead, homering on each of his three swings. Kyle Schwarber couldn't get the job done in the 9th inning Then came the swing-off 💪 — MLB (@MLB) July 16, 2025 'That was electric, absolutely electric,' Alonso said. 'That's money. That's big time.' 'I told Schwarber afterwards, 'Dude, you're just cool,'' Webb said. 'Every time we face him, 'I'm like, 'you're just a cool dude.'' Aranda, needing one home run to tie the score and two to win, failed to hit any. The National League side erupted, with Alonso hoisting the 229-pound Schwarber into the air as the rest of the NL All-Stars shouted, 'MVP! MVP!' Sure enough, Schwarber earned that honor, even though he went 0-for-2 with a walk in the actual game. Recalling the celebration, Atlanta Braves manager Brian Snitker, an NL coach, marveled at what he witnessed. Snitker, a baseball lifer who turns 70 in October, was not necessarily inclined to like the swing-off. But he, too, couldn't help but revel in it. 'I looked over and I thought, 'Look at all these grown men acting like kids,'' Snitker said. 'I loved it. The fans loved it. The guys had a ball with it.' The Giants' Ray, who upon learning of the concept late in the game thought it was 'weird,' also came around. Advertisement 'Standing on the sidelines like that and watching home runs go out of the park,' Ray said, 'It's a lot of fun.' Any skepticism he had, any skepticism many of us had, pretty much evaporated on a hot Atlanta night. A swing-off to end every extra-inning game would be too much. But a swing-off to decide an All-Star exhibition? 'That was a good idea,' the Brewers' Megill said. 'Whoever did that, good for them.' I can't believe I'm about to say this. Amen.

Freddy Peralta, Trevor Megill Going Viral For Bob Uecker Tribute During All Star Game
Freddy Peralta, Trevor Megill Going Viral For Bob Uecker Tribute During All Star Game originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Milwaukee Brewers lost a legend over the offseason when Bob Uecker passed away in January at the age of 90. Uecker was larger than life in Milwaukee and he left an impact on every life he touched. Advertisement Two of those lives he touched were Brewers pitchers Freddy Peralta and Trevor Megill, both of whom are All Stars this year after putting up fantastic first halves of the 2025 season. At this year's All Star Game, both Peralta and Megill chose to make tributes in their own way to the late, great Bob Uecker and they are going viral for it. Jul 15, 2025; Cumberland, Georgia, USA; The National League All-Stars stand for the national anthem before the 2025 MLB All Star Game at Truist Park. Mandatory Credit: Jordan Godfree-Imagn Images Trevor Megill, while walking the All Star Red Carpet coming into the game, showed off his tribute to Uecker, with it sewn into the lining of his suit jacket. Bob Uecker's most famous line from the Major League movies, "Juuuuust a bit outside" is an absolutely perfect tribute from the Brewers closer. The plaid pattern, Uecker's signature, it's all so perfect. Advertisement To add to the tributes, at every All Star Game, MLB stops for a moment to Stand Up To Cancer, where everyone in the ballpark stands and holds a card with a name of someone they know that has battled or is battling cancer. Freddy Peralta knew exactly who he was going to put on his card. Uecker died on January 16th after a two year battle with small cell lung cancer. Two very fitting and very perfect tributes from the Brewers All Stars to Bob Uecker.
