Does the fact Raleigh is one of the best defensive catchers in the league while Judge will end up DHing a third of the season or so and plays RF when he doesn’t not mean anything?

It 100% absolutely should. It's not a 'Most Valuable Hitter' award. If both these guys played in NY Cal would be the clear cut MVP. Cal was clear cut the best catcher in baseball last year and is doing very well this year. Judge wasn't even close to the best defensive outfielder. He's the 36'th best outfielder this year thus far......

It's the east coast bias etc setting in. They've started the Olympic Simone Biles level mental gymnastics to try to convince the rest of us it's their boy, this is what's happening.

to be fair, its going to turn into a Judge thread organically once people start to think that Cal deserves MVP

It’s a mostly subjective process. I can promise you that a teams performance goes into it with most every writer. If the Yankees miss the postseason and Judge misses a handful more games, and the opposite is true for Seattle and Raleigh, I believe wholeheartedly that Judge will drop on some ballots and Raleigh will rise.

Also, there are a ton more people invested in judge cards than in cal cards.

I am not an unlicensed collector at all but if I were to buy one it would be this Cal rookie in auction. The chest protector makes the unlicensed much less noticeable.

Raleigh's favorite TV show is Severance, and he'd like to meet Larry Bird. He gets cool points for those answers.

#48 ties salvy for most homeruns by a catcher

6 to go to tie the Mick for most by a switch hitter

Dang that’s pretty!
I lost out or at least didn’t pony up for a Chrome auto gold yesterday. Went raw for $800. My excuse is perhaps will have the chance again in Dec for less?

Future GOAT catcher.

Congratulations Cal and many years of excellence to follow.

His name will be etched in the record books forever.

For those on the east coast, yes, he plays for an MLB team.
