But the Yankees are having a historically good year and if Judge stays ahead of him in WAR, the "best player on the best team" thing would probably steal enough votes away from Ohtani.
Sho also has Trout that will split some of the vote away from him this year. I think it's #99's to lose with the run the Yankees are putting together, but Sho continues to impress and inspire with his awesomeness.

It would be a really interesting conversation with Trout and Ohtani if the Angels were in first place, but it seems as though hell will freeze over before that ever happens.
