4 Bold predictions for the Cleveland Guardians 2025 season ahead of Opening Day

3. Steven Kwan hits 25+ home runs in 2025

Admiteddly, the first two predictions here are not bold, but this one emboldies the spirit of bold predictions perfectly. Steven Kwan has 25 home runs in his career, so predicting that he hits that much in a single season may seem like a stretch to some. However, the now-27-year-old could see him take his increased power output from last season to the next level by way of matching his career total.

Kwan hit a career-high 14 home runs last season in 122 games, surpassing his home run total from the previous two seasons by three. There is a genuine case to be made for Kwan to eclipse the 20-home run mark if he could have stayed healthy for the entire season.

Unlike the power hitters that teams hope hit for a higher average, Kwan possesses the opposite skill set, hitting for a high average with a power output that is a work in progress. It is more possible that a player fitting Kwan's description can use his skill set in order to drive the ball on a more frequent basis rather than hoping a strikeout prone player suddenly becomes more disciplined at the plate. Do not be surprised if Kwan post some of the best numbers of his career in what is his fourth major league season.
