Show Caption

Young guns are the heart and soul of professional sports. Seeing someone with stars in their eyes wipe the floor with veterans nearly twice their age never gets old. It's a passing of the torch right before our very eyes, and the best of the best are honored with the title "Rookie of the Year."

2025 is a special season in that regard, with a plethora of high-end prospects ready to hit the big leagues. They all come from different walks as well. Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Roki Sasaki was an international superstar who never had to play in the minor leagues. Boston Red Sox infielder Kristian Campbell went from fourth-round pick to Minor League Player of the Year in the blink of an eye. Meanwhile, someone like the New York Yankees' Jasson Dominguez has been considered a top prospect for quite some time, but injuries and limited success at the Major League level have left some fans wondering if he's worth the hype.

There are a lot of questions and a lot of exciting moments involving these youngsters coming up in 2025, so as the regular season kicks off here are the latest odds for the AL and NL Rookie of the Year Awards, provided by BetMGM, plus predictions from our experts.
