Ohtani is overrated. 😀

I don’t think he is overrated but if he were only a position player he wouldn’t be considered the best player in the game imo. It’s because he also pitches at a high level that makes it such a large gap between he and the next best players.

Not the best player if he were only a position player, but would be right there near the top.

Oh, I think Cal is winning the MVP, but it should be regular season Judge.

Cal Raleigh also plays gold glove defense behind the plate. Do you know how incredibly insane that is for someone to play over 1000 innings at catcher and not allow a single passed ball? Only 4 guys have ever accomplished that. And then this dude doesn’t only smash 60 bombs and lead the AL in RBI, but he’s a fawking switch hitter on top of that. Aaron Judge is not a great fielder. Cal Raleigh was unanimously the best player in baseball for this season. Idk what he will do next year but for this season alone, I’m taking Cal Raleigh. So regular season Aaron Judge can go eat 💩 with the rest of his team.

He had a pretty damn good 24 season as well.
Honestly, his career is off to a heck of a start!
If he can continue to get that average up, he’ll be right there with the Judges and Ohtanis, imo.

Judge is a good, but not great outfielder. His offensive stats are nuts this season.

Not taking away anything from Cal, he had an amazing season. The best overall season by a catcher ever I would think?
