Oh, no, it’s Judge’s MVP
BRONX, N.Y. — Until the end of time, we’ll debate about what constitutes an MVP. Is it the most valuable player (hence the term MVP)? Is it the best player? Should the award go to the best player on the best team or the best player regardless of postseason contention? Should a pitcher be eligible to win the MVP ahead of a position player? On and on these arguments will play out.
As one may know, what was (and in my opinion still is) a unanimous runaway for American League Most Valuable Player with Aaron Judge, has now been muddled by Shohei Ohtani supporters. Allow me to preface this by saying that what Ohtani does is unmatched and incredible. He’s a baseball unicorn.
