A longtime benchmark of a productive and successful offensive season, players also need help across the lineup in order to achieve the revered feat.
Even in just the span of my 30-year lifetime, it truly is wild to look back at how much baseball statistics have changed in such a short period of time.
Thanks to the advent of sabermetrics which were famously popularized by the 2002 “Moneyball” Oakland Athletics, a wide range of new statistics emerged as front offices, media members, players and fans alike all had new ways to contextualize how players were performing.
This escalated even further at the start of the 2015 season with the birth of the Statcast era and Baseball Savant, which include a dizzying level of specific information that breaks down every play to a microscopic level.
When I was first getting into baseball as a 5-year-old, I had no clue what even WHIP was at the time, let alone the advanced stats of today such as Win Probability Added, Outs Above Average and the now ubiquitous Wins Above Replacement.
Yet through all of this, one achievement that has endured the test of time to one degree or another is compiling 100 RBI in a season – which may not be indicative of an All-Star-level player on its own, but it is a definitive sign that a player was able to find a way to get runs across the plate throughout the season.
Though still a relatively common achievement, 100 RBI in a season seemed to be something at least one player on each team would be guaranteed to do each year – yet some clubs have still found themselves encountering lengthy droughts when it comes to the century mark in one of baseball’s ancient stats.
In 2025, 14 players across MLB reached the 100 RBI mark, a slight decrease from the 16 players that hit the milestone in 2024.
As of May 28, 2026, it’s Andy Pages of the Los Angeles Dodgers who is pacing the league, recently reaching the halfway mark at 50 RBI – which stands alone as the highest mark in the league at the moment.
While a handful of players are likely to reach the mark this season, here’s a look at the last time each team had a player reach the milestone, beginning with the most recent occurrences:
