AL MVP Odds Show A Tight Race Between 2 Stars

Shohei Ohtani is the favorite for the American League MVP award. Last year, he won the award with an unanimous vote. Ohtsani has a .258/.348/.486 line with 19 home runs, 51 runs and 56 RBI. He also has 2.38 ERA and 123 strikeouts in 87 innings as a pitcher.

Ohtani is the leading candidate to win the award as long as he keeps excelling at both hitting and pitching. Aaron Judge and Yordan Alvarez are also contenders. Alvarez has 27 home runs and a league-leading 1.074 OPS. Paul Goldschmidt is second with 1,004 OPS, the rest of the hitters are under 1,.000.
