Red Sox' Steven Matz Could Be October Legend in 2025 MLB Playoffs
Boston Red Sox pitcher Steven Matz's impressive performance in the American League Wild Card Series against the New York Yankees could prove pivotal for the team's postseason ambitions. Matz, who joined the Red Sox this season, has been a standout reliever with a stellar 2.08 ERA in 21 appearances.
Matz's potential impact on the Red Sox's postseason run is reminiscent of former St. Louis Cardinals players who have made their mark in recent postseasons. Randy Arozarena, Tommy Edman, and Adolis Garcia are among those who have shone on the big stage. While the St. Louis Cardinals may not be World Series contenders in the near future, the 2025 MLB playoffs could see more former St. Louis Cardinals players become October legends.
Matz, who was once part of the St. Louis Cardinals organization, could be one such player. His strong showing in the bullpen this season has put him in a position to potentially lead the Red Sox to glory in the postseason.
With Matz's impressive form and the potential for more former St. Louis Cardinals players to make their mark in the 2025 MLB playoffs, the stage is set for a memorable postseason. The Red Sox, buoyed by Matz's performances, will be hoping to make a deep run in the playoffs and create their own October legends.
