Annual MVP debates always come with strong opinions and varying takes, but never before have we had to ask this question -- if one player puts up MVP-type numbers as a hitter and a pitcher, as Shohei Ohtani does every year, should he automatically win it? Does Aaron Judge's pursuit of a home run record put him ahead in this race? Ohtani was a unanimous MVP pick last year and in some ways has been even better this year. Judge is on pace for an American League record 66 home runs and should be playing in October. So who is more deserving? MLB.com assembled a group of experts to debate this topic. |
