The 2025 National League Silver Slugger finalists have been revealed, which may provide support for one of Jed Hoyer's key takeaways heading into the offseason. The Cubs as a team, Nico Hoerner, Pete Crow-Armstrong, and Kyle Tucker were all named finalists for the Silver Slugger award at their respective positions. The reveal may lend credence to one of the talking points Hoyer had after the Milwaukee Brewers eliminated the Cubs in the NLDS.
For as great as the Cubs' offense was during the first half of the season, there is no question that the offense appeared to break down during the closing weeks of the regular season and into the playoffs.
