Jeremy Peña Had Career Year in 2025 Despite Injuries, Named All-Star

Jeremy Peña, an irreplaceable player for the Houston Astros, had a career year in 2025, earning his first All-Star selection and finishing 10th in MVP voting with 5.6 bWAR, despite missing significant time and playing only 125 games. His performance showcased the potential he displayed as a rookie ALCS and World Series MVP. The Astros face a challenge if Peña misses extended time, as Carlos Correa, while capable at shortstop, prefers third base to preserve his body.
