The first half of the 2025 MLB season will officially be in the books after Sunday's games, with the 2025 Home Run Derby taking place Monday, July 14, and the MLB All-Star Game being played Tuesday, July 15,

It's a wrap for the first half of the 2025 MLB season so that means the Home Run Derby is upon us. See which sluggers will participate in Atlanta.

With the new format, endurance has become a pivotal part of the derby, giving younger competitors a huge advantage. That's likely a big reason why, prior to Teoscar Hernandez winning a year ago, no competitor over the age of 26 had won since the format changed.

The field is set for the 2025 T-Mobile Home Run Derby, which will take place Monday (8 p.m. ET, ESPN) at Truist Park in Atlanta. Here's a breakdown of the eight sluggers who are set to square off in this year's version of the annual power-hitting competition.

It's a new era for MLB's Home Run Derby in 2025. As baseball's most iconic exhibition prepares to take over Truist Park in Atlanta next week, the field will not feature any players who participated last year.

Seattle Mariners catcher Cal Raleigh enters the Derby as the favorite, with his MLB-leading 38 home runs at the All-Star break just one short of Barry Bonds' first-half mark from 2001 – the year he went on to set the single-season home run record.
