@Ken. Statcast says judge got 6 HRs in Yankees stadium when they are not HR in other stadium, if judge had 45 HRs instead of his 51 HR, we won’t be taking about it. FACTS. Yankees stadium is a band box.
A DH that’s recovering from surgery, we including Japan fans know Ken isn’t big on Shohei so expected with his comment he would’ve already crowned his NY player in the same situation
Witt Jr. is having an MVP season. If Witt was in the NL he'd be the overwhelming favorite. Unfortunately, he's in the AL and Judge is the MVP!! Witt should get kudos for being a great player. #2 in MVP
@user-vx5qg7hj5t In what alternate reality are you living in? Only thing Soto leads Witt in is HRs. Soto leads in OBP but barely. Witt leads in most other areas PLUS he plays a premium position. You're being biased. I don't have a personal stake in one or the other.
1. Judge is playing out of Position. Hes a right fielder but cant since Soto cant play any where else 2. Bobby has two really good hitter behind him protecting him. Both players with 90 RBIs. So don't act like hes is doing it by him self. 3. Is not close at all. Bobby is doing great but Judge is doing Historically great.
I mean in theory Judge is wedged between Soto and Stanton if Stanton stays healthy. Which he doesn’t. I think it’s possible that both are having MVP seasons I think Witt would win in a lot of different years it’s just a little unlucky that he’s having this year while Judge is having a insane year.
Witt is great. But if we are going to scrutinize Judge's HR numbers, let's throw Witt's BA under the bus while we're at it. The dead balls have definitely helped contact-heavy hitters like Witt and Kwon, while hurting power hitters across the board. Plus, playing in massive Kaufmann definitely inflates Witt's BA by a lot vs playing in a smaller ballpark where he'd have 5 more HRs but 25 pts lower BA.
Am I missing something I understand Witt is having unbelievable a year, but judge is leading almost everything in any other year. This guy is a triple crown winner. Lindor as well having a good year but nothing for him to be above Ketel Marte and Ozuna
Judge is leading pretty much in every major category!! Hit has not to do if you're a Yankees fan or not!! That's taking nothing away from Whitt!! It's not even close!!!!
I'm an old Yankee fan but I'm also a huge baseball fan and I absolutely love Bobby Witt Jr. he stuffs the stat sheet like no other player and I'm on these comment sections proclaiming Judge as the MVP because if he finishes the season healthy he will be. For a guy that's 6'7" I would say Judge plays a remarkable CF no it's not as good as Witt plays SS but it's good enough that I don't think the defensive aspect will play into the MVP race. Just because some Yankee fans are disrespectful morons doesn't mean we all are.
Why is no one talking about Ozuna? Legitimately in the hunt for triple crown. I don't think any player in the NL has been more VALUABLE to his team. I'm not saying he should win but come on, show a little respect for what he's doing.
Idk why people are even talking about Lindor. Yeah he plays SS but his OPS is 150 points lower than both Ohtani and Ozuna. There are seven other NL players between him and these two.
Probably because he’s a piece of shit on and off the field. MLB isn’t gonna give an MVP to a guy who beats his wife and gets DUI’s. Also he has a bad tendency for hitting catchers on the head with his bat…..
Nah FOH This “acknowledging” another great player is what cost Judge his first MVP when yah decided to give it to the midget from Houston even tho judge had him beat in every stat We are not robbing him again Yah wanna give points to Witt just cause he plays for the royals But don’t wanna give credit to judge cause he plays for the Yankees When obviously one comes with 10x the pressure Especially given his contract and now captain status Nope Nope Nope Yah didn’t care about defense when judge was lapping altuve in 2017 Yah better not care now FOH
I love a good race but right now Judge is at 50 points higher WrC+. Not like Witt isn't having an amazing year, other years he wins it hands down. But this is historic.
I hate the idea of a DH winning MVP but there's no one else deserving of the award in the NL. I thought maybe Marte had a shot but his IL stint has cost him and Ohtani just keeps raking and running. My only question is for a guy who steals bases and seems quite agile why doesn't Ohtani play in the field? I find that suspect.
STOP making fake argument about Lindor. Lindor is not even top 5 in Avg,RBI, HR and OPS, SLG and stolen bases. Ohtani has higher fWAR and bWAR where being DH penalizes DH. STOP STOP IT. Silly.
Why does ANYONE who considers themselves an adult do that. By the way I asked that recently also and I believe the answer I got was cuz they're former catchers.
@@svenendres5885 no. It’s not about that. It’s about teams and mostly fans being stuck with high priced players. Someone like Soto for example. Busting his butt to get to free agency. Get the huge contract in dollars and years and then just stop caring as much. Many players have done this. Rendon. Cespedes. Etc. That’s why we see huge contract years. Players try there hardest, take care of themselves big time, don’t go out partying and strictly focus on the game. They cash in and they don’t care like they did leading up to that big payday. Now the team and fans are stuck with these guys, hampering the team to make future moves and win.
A guy hits 60 homers while batting .330 and he can't win the MVP on your card. That's a tough ass standard.. BTW Judge hit 62 in 2022 minus Soto.. Not a fluke..
STOP making fake argument about Lindor. Lindor is not even top 5 in Avg,RBI, HR and OPS, SLG and stolen bases. Ohtani has higher fWAR and bWAR where being DH penalizes DH. STOP STOP IT. Silly.
i think Judge and Ohtani are already locked in.
It’s good for media to hype up something to be a competition when it’s almost already decided.

@@broman74dude95 it’s right in the middle of sq ft in the league
The same guys that made Altuve won in 2017 🤡🤡🤡

Soto have better numbers than witt jr

@@JorgeFeliz-v4lno he doesn’t
lol Witt Jr would win over Ohtani…
Judge having an amazing season, Witt just having an average Trout year
1. Judge is playing out of Position. Hes a right fielder but cant since Soto cant play any where else
2. Bobby has two really good hitter behind him protecting him. Both players with 90 RBIs. So don't act like hes is doing it by him self.

Judge is the AL MVP. If he breaks his own AL homerun, Judge had better be unanimous AL MVP, or MLB needs to conduct an investigation.
When was the last time a 1.200 ops didn’t win the mvp
I don't know nobody ever has an OPS that high LOL.. 1.088 was Trouts all time OPS high..
@@dbreiden83080 sounds like a Ted Williams stat
If Judge gets 60+ home runs, the MVP race is his. MVP voters will ALWAYS go for milestones like 60 HRs.
Which is why Stanton won in 2017 even though votto was all around better that year
Lindor is having an ok season.
Witt is the new Trout
Why is no one talking about Ozuna? Legitimately in the hunt for triple crown. I don't think any player in the NL has been more VALUABLE to his team. I'm not saying he should win but come on, show a little respect for what he's doing.
Because he beats women
Idk why people are even talking about Lindor. Yeah he plays SS but his OPS is 150 points lower than both Ohtani and Ozuna. There are seven other NL players between him and these two.
Probably because he’s a piece of shit on and off the field. MLB isn’t gonna give an MVP to a guy who beats his wife and gets DUI’s. Also he has a bad tendency for hitting catchers on the head with his bat…..
@AlphaRado Ohtani bets on baseball and MLB covers it up. I seem to recall a guy who should be in the hall of fame getting banned for that.
Proven?
Nah FOH
This “acknowledging” another great player is what cost Judge his first MVP
when yah decided to give it to the midget from Houston even tho judge had him beat in every stat
We are not robbing him again
Yah wanna give points to Witt just cause he plays for the royals
But don’t wanna give credit to judge cause he plays for the Yankees
When obviously one comes with 10x the pressure
Especially given his contract and now captain status
Nope Nope Nope
Yah didn’t care about defense when judge was lapping altuve in 2017
Yah better not care now
FOH

Not to take anything away from Judge (go Fresno St!) but how many HRs would Judge have at Dodger Stadium? 6-8 less????????
Judge hits bombs your comment is lacking sense.
How are they heating up it’s judge and ohtani….

Bro, you know Ohtani is a pitcher and also recovering from TJ surgery. You know right …lol
What about Ohtani?
Ohtani is in the NL
Judge should have won AL MVP in 2017. The Astros and Altuve cheated the entire 2017 season.
No it’s not Judge is the MVP of both leagues lmaoooo😊
Lindor MVP? Are you kidding me?? Ketel Marte has better numbers, man.
Soto has way better than wiit jr lol the mlb want him to win the mvp so bad
Witt is better than Soto and I’m a Yankee fan
STOP making fake argument about Lindor. Lindor is not even top 5 in Avg,RBI, HR and OPS, SLG and stolen bases. Ohtani has higher fWAR and bWAR where being DH penalizes DH. STOP STOP IT. Silly.
Why do AJ and Erik wear those ridiculous hats? Are they secretly 12 years old?
Why does ANYONE who considers themselves an adult do that. By the way I asked that recently also and I believe the answer I got was cuz they're former catchers.
I wish contract weren’t guaranteed in baseball. There should be protections in place for the teams.
Imagine simping for billionaire owners.

I would vote for Bobby Witt based on generating offense without the shield of a Juan Soto hitting ahead of him.
A guy hits 60 homers while batting .330 and he can't win the MVP on your card. That's a tough ass standard.. BTW Judge hit 62 in 2022 minus Soto.. Not a fluke..
