4 games to go.

Raleigh already hit #59 tonight. OK, what voter dares not to put Raleigh and Judge in some order 1 or 2 for MVP?

Fried - any doubt he was dealing with blister issues (including grip issues for a few starts) for those bad 8 starts?

i am going to be rather annoyed if he breaks Judges record and I would also think that would nearly guarantee that he takes MVP no matter the fact that Judge still beats him by quite a lot on the majority of meaningful hitting stats

but the other side of that is that if the record does get broken, I hope that Judge will get rather annoyed with himself for lollygagging around for the last few weeks in 2022 and happily taking that day off at the end of last year when he was on a HR hot streak and that he plays all of 2026 with a chip on his shoulder

"Scattering The Ashes has all the feels. Paul Russell Semendinger's debut novel taps into every emotion. You'll laugh. You'll cry. You'll reexamine those relationships that give your life meaning." — Don Burke, writer at The New York Post

"This charming and meticulously researched book will remind you of baseball’s power to change and enrich lives far beyond the diamond."

—Jonathan Eig, New York Times best-selling author of Luckiest Man, Opening Day, and Ali: A Life

"A young man from Compton rises to the highest levels of baseball greatness.

Considered one of the classiest baseball players ever, this is Roy White's story, but it's also the story of a unique period in baseball history when the Yankees fell from grace and regained glory and the country dealt with societal changes in many ways."
