2026 MLB. Play Ball Next Year on Time.

Home Run Derby Predictions Thread:

I like this format better than the 2015+ one. Only thing I don't like is that they still have a bracket (in round 2).

Winner: Wilson Contreras

I was going to pick him because I thought he was the catcher. It looks like the catcher is William, in Milwaukee.

Then I saw he was suspended, but is eligible for the Home Run Derby.

Sounds like sports / MLB for the winner to be a suspended guy.

Most in a round: Was thinking double digits, but I'll drop to 9. Schwarber. Guess that means it will probably be round 1, but who knows, there could be higher numbers in round 2 even with less swings.

Longest: Schwarber, 502

Winner: AL

MVP: Shea Langeliers

Looks like they stopped doing the vehicles in 2018.

AND, Ford is the new sponsor.

Oh well, just for the tradition, gotta go with a Ford Mustang gas sports car. Not the 4 door electric SUV. Actually I forgot, Ford wants to sell to normal people, so yeah, it probably would be the 4 door Mustang Mach-E.
