The Rockies’ Hunter Goodman hammered out a milestone 2025 season.
On Thursday, Goodman won the Louisville Slugger Silver Slugger Award for a catcher in the National League. The 26-year-old became the first Rockies catcher to win the award.
In 144 games, Colorado’s lone All-Star slashed .278/.323/.520 with 31 homers, 28 doubles, five triples and 91 RBIs. Goodman was the first NL catcher to hit 30 home runs in a season since the Braves’ Javy Lopez hit 43 in 2003. He was also the first Rockies player to hit at least 30 home runs since Charlie Blackmon (32), Trevor Story (35), and Nolan Arenado (41) in 2019.
