On Monday, Ohtani became the first player in MLB history to record 44 home runs and 44 stolen bases in a single season.

MVP is not trending in his favor. If the Mets make the playoffs then I think the vote is close to split. If the Dodgers somehow lose the division too then there's no way he wins it.

Walking on egg shells from here on out. If he doesn't get 50/50 I think it's more likely than not it goes to Lindor. That will be a HUGE sell in the short term. And doesn't look good in the long-term either. 20% haircut easy.

Here, I will make it easy for your Ohtani traders.

Mets miss playoffs -> Ohtani wins MVP.
Mets make playoffs AND Dodgers win division AND Ohtani goes 50/50 -> Ohtani wins MVP.

ANY OTHER RESULT and Ohtani loses the MVP.

Mets MAKE playoffs AND
(Dodgers LOSE division OR Ohtani goes < 50/50) -> Ohtani loses MVP (20%++ haircut).

Is this as reliable as your earth shattering insider news about the gambling scandal?

My information was 100% reliable, as my clients will attest.

I love getting heckled from the peanut gallery though, it's free publicity for me. So keep it up champ.

Lmao he's broken the record this year and still going. He doesn't need 50/50, he's done enough. Oh, and he's an injured pitcher.

Well it's not a ZJ-level card, but I am glad to pick up one I needed for the TTY set.

I think your wrong. As long as Ohtani does not get injured he will win MVP.

Understand that there is a collusion among NY sports media, if there is any reasonable way they can give the award to Lindor they will do so. It's not about the best player or even the most valuable. I have seen how these guys operate first-hand.

Ohtani still has to put in some work to make it unreasonable to award it to anyone but him.

Do the NY sports writers control more than 50% of the vote?

Baseball has always been a business… international market vs NY market… I’d say, Ohtani has MVP in the bag already.

Cities will burn if they give it to Lindor over Ohtani.

Since there IS collusion (not may be… IS), please show the proof.

1) First ever 46/46 season
1) Ties career high HR with 46
2) New career high RBI with 101 (previously 100)
3) 19 games to reach 50/50, 1 HR/SB every 4.75 games

He's going to do it barring injury
