Soto MVP bettor here - I'm cheering right along with all of you tonight.

Even without a financial stake in this, I would love to see him win. The guy is a stud.

So? He who whacks ball furthest is bestest? Everyone knows he was pitched to with complete terror. Hard to hit balls in the air when they are at your kneecaps and away. Stay you Juan dont fall for the back shoulder drop uppercut swing. Steady will win the race. Young “investors” will learn someday.

The Mike Schmidt factor maybe too powerful, I think Harper has it.

Since the mlb tries to kill the game 1/2 the time I think we know what route they will choose.

MLB doesn't choose, a panel of accredited writers do.

Harper has a camera crew in his house. Soto on a cellphone in a studio apartment, tatis on a flip phone in car. Not looking good for the young guys
