Welcome to the 2nd “Half” of the 2025 season. I put half in quotations because we are actually 59.5% through the season, MLB teams have played 1,446 games, and only have 984 games left on the schedule (assuming they all get played).

Rays 1B Bob Seymour (26, AAA) might not be a big piece of the plan in Tampa, but he’s peeking over some shoulders while they ponder the blueprints. A 13th round pick out of Wake Forest in 2021, he has smashed his way through every level despite a modest defensive ceiling and a bit of a strikeout problem, although that might going the way of the dodo. Over his last 26 games, he’s slashing .343/.397/.676 with a 19.8 percent strikeout rate and a 172 wRC+. I’m not saying this is who he’ll be at the highest level, but I think players are closer to clay than cement, and Seymour is worth a look in just about every league if he gets a chance in the big leagues.

Nationals OF Dylan Crews leads us off for the second time in a week after taking the top spot in last Sunday’s Stash List Vol. 8: Crews Control or Hubba Bubba.
Here’s what I said then: “His last ten games have been arguably his best of the season: .300/.383/.600 with three home runs, two steals and a 10.6 percent strikeout rate. Small sample goes without saying but I’ll say it anyway and then say the Nats have had Crews on the escalator all season and will reportedly make room for him sooner than later. That’s what has him in the top spot, for what it’s Werth: the likelihood of a call-up turned out to be more valuable than usual in the construction of this list. Lots of uncertainty in the stash game this time of year.”
Last week me was all over that one. Crews has continued hitting this week and will reportedly make his major league debut on Monday.
