The final Saturday of the 2025 season marks one last power rankings. Unfortunately for most the readers involved, the penultimate day of the season will be filled with anxiety and potentially disappointment.

The National League wild-card race gets tighter by the day. The Mets continue to free-fall in the third spot, opening space for the Reds, Cardinals, Diamondbacks, and Giants to attempt a push for the final spot. The true threat are the Reds, who at 64-59 are only half a game back, and the Giants (59-63), who have the pitching and talent to pull off a strong month and a half. The Cubs are also...
