MLB The Show 25 cover athletes

Paul Skenes
Elly De La Cruz
Gunnar Henderson

An unstoppable force

Paul Skenes

Skenes has dominated since high school, refining the pitches that made him the 2023 National Pitcher of the Year and a college champion. Drafted #1 overall, he carried his success into the MLB, earning All-Star Game starter honours, NL Rookie of the Year and All-MLB First Team recognition. 

An explosive journey

Elly De La Cruz

De La Cruz controls the game at Mach speed. His Road To The Show started quietly in the Dominican Republic, but he stole the minor and major league spotlight with his blend of power, a cannon-like arm and game-breaking speed. One of the youngest players in history to hit for the cycle, he became an All-Star in ‘24. Blink and you’ll miss baseball’s most fearless player.

A dedicated competitor

Gunnar Henderson

Henderson hasn't hit every checkpoint in his Road To The Show - he’s consistently crushed them. Alabama’s high-school Player of the Year rose through the minors, becoming 2023’s #1 MLB Prospect. Since his debut, Henderson has helped lead the Orioles back to the postseason, becoming an AL Rookie of the Year, Silver Slugger, All-Star and MVP candidate along the way.
