The National League Manager of the Year award honors the skipper who best maximizes his roster’s potential over the course of the regular season. This accolade is not just about wins—it often rewards managerial creativity, player development, handling of adversity, and exceeding expectations.
For 2025, the race includes both veteran managers looking to reclaim dominance and up-and-coming names steering teams through rebuilding or breakout seasons. A strong showing from a surprise playoff team or an impressive turnaround campaign often sways voters in this highly narrative-driven award.
Craig Counsell (Chicago Cubs)
After making a high-profile move to the Cubs, Counsell’s steady leadership is already turning heads. If Chicago capitalizes on its young core and returns to postseason relevance, Counsell could be the frontrunner.
Skip Schumaker (Miami Marlins)
Schumaker impressed in 2023 and continues to guide the Marlins with energy and composure. If he can lead them back to the postseason in a loaded division, he’s likely to gain significant votes.
Bob Melvin (San Francisco Giants)
With a revamped roster and veteran experience, Melvin is well positioned to lead a resurgence in San Francisco. A strong finish in the NL West could make him a standout candidate.
Derek Shelton (Pittsburgh Pirates)
The Pirates have one of the most exciting young cores in baseball. If Shelton can keep the team competitive all year and push for a Wild Card berth, his efforts will be hard to ignore.
Dave Roberts (Los Angeles Dodgers)
While Roberts has plenty of talent at his disposal, he’ll still be in the conversation if the Dodgers dominate from wire to wire. However, expectations may work against him unless the team overachieves past its already high ceiling.
Torey Lovullo (Arizona Diamondbacks)
After guiding Arizona to a World Series run, Lovullo remains a respected figure. If the D-backs build on that success and finish strong again, he’ll be right in the mix.
