Don’t look now, but the AL MVP race is about to get real petty — and Mariners fans are here for every second of it.
While Yankees fans are busy melting down on social media, clutching their pinstriped pearls over the idea that Aaron Judge might not be crowned king again, Cal Raleigh is busy doing what he does best: carrying his team in September and keeping them relevant in the playoff race. Mariners fans can smell the panic coming out of the Bronx — and honestly, it’s glorious.
The beauty of all this? It isn’t even some out-of-nowhere underdog story.
