Ronald Acuรฑa Jr. and Jacob deGrom win 2025 Comeback Players of the Year! ๐
that change up. I love it. And then the 272 is so tough when you got to protect against. Please welcome 2004 and 2018 Red Sox World World Series champions Kevin Malar and David Price. Now remember Big Papa. Where’s he at? I thought he looked familiar. He still owes me 200 bucks. Well, everyone loves a good comeback story. Oh, wow. Even Dave Price is a fan of the comeback. That Doc, I walked so Dave Roberts could run. I’m familiar with that story, but I was talking about an award that I actually won during my career, the 2018 AL comeback player of the year. That’s right. The comeback is always greater than the setback. Let’s find out who the 2025 comeback players of the year are. Comeback player of the year, Ronald Akuna Jun. Akuna back to the plate. Look at this. Are you kidding me? He is back. Since he’s been back, he has tried to prove that he’s still the best player in the game. Jacob Deg Grom swinging a miss. And there is strikeout number 10. and Jacob de giving us a special performance. When healthy, he’s perfection personified on the mount. Ladies and gentlemen, please join me in welcoming National League Comeback Player of the Year, Ronald Akuna Jr. After missing more than 100 games in 2024, former Rookie of the Year and 2023 NL MVP is your comeback player of the year. Again, here is Greg Amser. Ronald Akuna Jr., you’ve done it again. Uh, coming back, I know you this is something you probably are tired of doing, coming back, having to bounce back from injury. You did it in 2022. How different was this journey coming back than when you came back in 2022? I think I got more experience in this this season and I put my my menet to to be prep to be preparing this season alone. That’s great. Now, you had nine stolen bases this year. We’re used to seeing over 70 stolen bases from you. Are you going to come back to being an elite base dealer next year, Ronald? You know me. I do. All right. Well, I want the comeback player of the year to tell me why the Atlanta Braves will be the comeback team of the National League next year. Yeah. We need to to be preparing spring training to to be a good good season. Yeah. Yeah. Hey, man. Mookie is good at this, but I think you could be a co-host because man, you bring the fashion. I’m telling you right now. Always. Well done. Congratulations. Thank you, man. I appreciate it. Ronald Auna Jr. Uh Muki, where are you at right now? Take it away, buddy. Congrats to Ronald Aun Akuna for his incredible comeback season. Coming up next, we hand out the executive of the year award presented by Sage, and we recognize an incredible groundbreaking season by the women of the AUSL. as it was. As it was

Phillies fan here but I admit a healthy Acuna is great for baseball man. Heโs an electric ball player
Congratulations and well deserved ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐
Wait! You are telling me Acuna won this award playing 95 games? Donโt you have to play a full season to come back? Did he come all the way back or just partially back? Or a little back?
What no George Springer why? Does the MLB hate Canada because is going from .220 in 2024 to .309 in 2025, not impressive enough? Plus playing in the World Series when clearly you are not 100% and are limping around?
Javi Baez should have won for the AL player.
How is Kevin Millar allowed anywhere near a microphone?
