I think they understand there would be too much of an uproar if they gave it Judge.

Ichiro won it in 2001 and he was far from the best statistically. He was just an enigma, rookie... MVP sometimes is about the story attached to it.
I think voters could tend to want to find someone else to give it to other than Judge

Ya that too.

Brett Boone in all reality had a better season than Ichiro and could have easily been the MVP.

Cal gets to 60 home runs how does he not win MVP
I am pretty confident he will win it. So many writers are sophisticated enough to not just focus on offensive production.
Of course I want to see Cal win it, but you could make a convincing argument for either of them. If Cal wins it, you know the east coast fans, particularly the New Yorkers are going to go crazy. But on the flip side, we're just as bias about Cal. I think it's a dead heat, and I think the voting is going to be extremely close.

Also, Dom Canzone could be the rookie of the year had he gotten more playing time and not gotten injured...

You guys know Dom has over a 1.200 OPS in his last 15 games?

Ha! Guess our favor has finally run out in New York.
That was pretty close. They could've gone with the initial call.

Sadly Cal is gonna have to break 62 homers to win mvp. Writers are horny for Judge. Cal deserves it but MLB is hott for Judge.
You have know idea what every writer is thinking.

Exactly!!! Boone should have won it that year.

Have you SEEN Kurtz's numbers? Kurtz might be the best ROY there's ever been.
