Your 2025 AL MVP will be....? - Page 30

blackvodka · 11-13-2025, 08:16 PM

The vote went about how I thought it would. Judge won in the end, but it was close. The BA just feels like a main reason imo.

A lot of writers should have their voting privileges taken away.

Nobody owes you crap. You got cocky and lost. Shouldn't have even been close.

Good lord, it's not that serious. The right player won.

kyle1707 · 11-13-2025, 11:07 PM

I do think they got it right

But a catcher did hit 60 hrs

Should be close

ThoseBackPages · 11-13-2025, 11:13 PM

was close

Yes he did but this just tells me they are getting closer to giving it to someone undeserving of the award. I agree it’s not that serious doesn’t hurt or help me either way.

PuddleMonkey · 11-13-2025, 11:54 PM

59.4% of people in this thread thought Judge should win. 56.6% of the BBWAA thought Judge should win. Judge won. There's no reason to get worked up.

marl1220 · 11-14-2025, 04:46 AM

I'm just here for the people who are here to witness the chaos if Judge had lost.

And Cal has nothing to be ashamed of. Going against a generational talent isn't an easy task.

corndog · 11-14-2025, 05:52 AM

Thanks to both for a great season!

They've already given in to undeserving folks in the past (i.e. Mo Vaughn).

BoSoxFan1999 · 11-14-2025, 07:47 AM

Speaking seriously, despite everyone poopoo-ing the importance of batting average, I think that is what ultimately sank Raleigh. The gulf between him and Judge (.331 to .247) was simply too much for some voters to ignore, even if they really wanted to vote for Raleigh. The BA disparity combined with Judge handily clearing Raleigh in most of the hitting stats (OBP, SLG, OPS+, wRC+, etc). If Dumper had hit closer to .270-.280, I think he eeks it out over Judge.

I loved the "BA isn't important, but sitting in catchers meetings is" argument.

You mean like Altuve in 2017? We all got robbed of a Judge Rookie season MVP.

100% a not insignificant # of voters had a "rookies can't be MVP!" stance.
