Kris Bryant has been a hot topic among Rockies fans, and as we approach the halfway mark of his massive contract, it's time to dive deeper into what we can realistically expect from him in 2025. With injuries plaguing his recent seasons, many are left wondering: is there still a spark left in the former MVP, or are we witnessing the twilight of a once-great career?

Let's consider the implications of Bryant primarily taking on the designated hitter role. Could this be the key to unlocking some semblance of his former self? Or is it merely a way to prolong a contract that many feel has become an albatross for the Rockies? If he can stay healthy and play 100 games, what kind of numbers should we anticipate? Some predict a modest .228 average with 12 home runs and 48 RBIs, but is that enough for a player of his caliber?

Moreover, what about his role in the clubhouse? With a young roster, can Bryant step up as a mentor, or is he too far removed from his peak to provide meaningful guidance? The Rockies are banking on his experience to help shape the next generation, but can he deliver on that front while also focusing on his own performance?

As we gear up for the 2025 season, I want to hear your thoughts. What are your expectations for Kris Bryant this year? Do you think he can reclaim any of his past glory, or is it time to face the reality that his best days are behind him? And how crucial do you think his leadership will be for the younger players on the team? Let's get the conversation rolling!
