Summary

Today we’re taking a deep dive into everyone’s favorite topic: the Shohei Ohtani vs Aaron Judge AL MVP debate. We’re also checking in on the playoff picture and taking a look at where everyone stands in their division/wild card races. The Braves have been the best team in baseball for 3+ months and find themselves neck and neck with the Mets for first place in the NL East. Meanwhile, the Mets seemingly have one more legit series left this year and it’s against the Braves. It looked like the AL ROY award was a wrap, but there’s a new contender that might give JRod a run for his money. Adam Wainwright and Yadier Molina are set to tie a record with 324 starts together. Judge is absolutely carrying the Yankees and we compare his stats vs the rest of the team’s. Padres fans were heard booing Juan Soto after a 2-for-28 stretch and we talk about why that may not be the best strategy to get him to sign an extension. Enjoy!
