You ever notice how true once-in-a-generation talents tend to make jaw-dropping feats feel almost routine? Take a peek at Aaron Judge cruising past the .400 batting mark as June looms or Shohei Ohtani climbing to second in MLB OPS after a bit of a stutter-step start. Those two? Already looking like locks for the AL and NL MVP trophies again this season. It’s almost like the league’s on autopilot when these two are healthy. But hey—let’s entertain a thought experiment for a second. Imagine the reigning MVPs weren’t dominating every stat sheet. If that happened, who would suddenly grab the spotlight? Who’s ready to step up and take center stage when the usual suspects aren’t leading the charge?
Let’s dive into some of the standout players quietly reshaping their teams’ fortunes, carving out their own MVP narratives—because the baseball world never stops producing remarkable stories, even if Judge and Ohtani steal the headlines.
Generational players tend to make the spectacular look mundane. And whether it’s Aaron Judge hitting over .400 as we approach June or Shohei Ohtani being second in MLB in OPS after a quiet start to the year, the two best players in the world again look like they’re destined to finish as the AL and NL MVP Award winners, respectively.
