The MVP is Ohtani and Judge anyway.

Will Shohei Ohtani (LA Dodgers) and Aaron Judge (New York Yankees) be able to stop the five-year MVP dictatorship.

MLB.COM, the official website of the Major League Baseball, introduced on the 22nd (Korea time) '10 candidates to bring down Otani and Judge from the MVP position'




MLB.COM said 'It's amazing that Otani and Judge continue to win MVP awards. Ohtani is the third consecutive year and Judge is the second consecutive year. Ohtani and Judge took seven of the 10 MVPs awarded since 2021. We're looking at two of the greatest players in baseball history right now,' he explained.

However, one of Ohtani and Judge could not be MVP until 2023 thanks to their competition in the same American League.

Ohtani moved to the National League as he moved from the Los Angeles Angels to the Los Angeles Dodgers ahead of the 2024 season. There were no players to check if they weren't each other, but the league was divided, so it's an easy solo.




In 2021, Ohtani won the American League's unanimous MVP.

In 2022, Judge won the American League MVP. Ohtani was second.

Ohtani won the American League unanimous MVP again in 2023.

In 2024 and 2025, Ohtani and Judge won consecutive National League American League MVP titles, respectively. Ohtani has won four awards in three consecutive years, and Judge has won three awards in two consecutive years.

MLB.COM said 'The phenomenon of other great players continuing to be pushed out of MVP can be a bit disappointing. They had an MVP season, but unfortunately they did not reach that level as they competed against Judge and Ohtani.

For example, this year, Calalli (Seattle Mariners) emerged as a strong contender for Judge, hitting the catcher's first 60 home runs. However, Judge laughed as 17 of the 30 first-place votes went to Judge and 13 to Lally.

MLB.COM has selected Nick Kurtz (Oakland Athletics first baseman), Lally (Seattle catcher), Jose Ramirez (Claver Guardians third baseman), Julio Rodriguez (Seattle center fielder), Bobby Wit Jr. (Kansas City Royals shortstop) as a candidate to threaten Judge in the American League. In the National League, Corbin Carroll (Arizona Diamondbacks right fielder), Elie de la Cruz (Cincinnati Reds shortstop), Paul Skins (Pittsburgh Pirates starting pitcher), Juan Soto (New York Mets right fielder) and Fernando Tatis Jr. (San Diego Padres right fielder) were listed.
