Like, at least it is capable of rolling.

That's what it looks like in the AL Central.

I was going to say, did you know Bobby Witt Jr.

is, by fan graphs measured, the most valuable player in baseball.

What a great point, Jeff.

No, he's not.

And, and he's not because I, I actually agree that voting on wins above replacement strictly is a stupid way to determine MVP.

Like it's a tool.

It's nice.

But if you are actually looking at, at American league MVP right now, um,

I think Ben Rice is going to be, if not at the top of the list, then near the top of it.

I think Aaron judge as he is every year, you know, leading major league baseball in home runs and Jordan Alvarez is going to be up there.

A guy, a lot of people don't know how good he is.

Shay Langoliers with the A's is a ridiculously good hitter.

And, uh,

what he has developed into and playing catcher as well.

Again, very, very helpful, very useful.

But right now, if you were to say that Bobby Witt Jr.

should be the American League MVP, I don't know that I would quarrel with you.

He plays the second most important position on the field better than anyone else in baseball.
