I don’t think Jose is winning MVP in 2018 unless he goes on a rampage the last 2 months. Trout, Betts or JD Martinez...I would think are ahead of Altuve....I am hoping he can continue his streak of being the hits leader. |

I just want him to continue to lead in hits and average. Betts is giving a real run for the money on average though. |

When he’s not playing, anyone can take the MVP with a good season. |

Mike Fiers shut out the Red Sox today? From a MLBTR: “Tigers right-hander Mike Fiers started against the Red Sox on Saturday, but he may find himself on Boston’s roster soon. With the July 31 non-waiver trade deadline nearing, the Red Sox are one of several clubs “evaluating” Fiers, Buster Olney of ESPN tweets.” I hope the Red Sox get him. |

The same Fiers we all wanted to be tarred and feathered? Wow... |

When he’s not playing, anyone can take the MVP with a good season. When I think of an MVP, I think of players who lead their teams to championships....Trout has never done that. He is a great player, but, until the Angels get out of 4th place, he should not get the MVP. |

It all depends on your definition of the MVP. Trout is a once in a generation best player. He'd make any team better if you replaced their best player with him.

One man can't make his team win a championship. Yes, any team in the top 5 right now would become the favorite to win it all if he was sent to them. |

He can’t help it if his team is loaded with bad contracts and underachievers. |

Trout is one of the really good players whom I watch often, but never find myself saying, "Wow, what a play!" or "Wow, what a bomb!".

He has been very consistent throughout his career at a top level. Which is why he has that reputation. Though you never really see any plays of his in the Hi-Lite Reel unless its a game-winning HR Houston has had a lot of luck pitching against Him vs them pitching against Pujols who has killed Houston over the years. |

His infield hits and steals impress me a lot. The guy is faster than Altuve.
