Judge-Ohtani? Ohtani-Judge? Who’s your No. 1 in the MVP race?

In the latest MLB.com MVP poll, there’s still one favorite between Aaron Judge and Shohei Ohtani in the American League. But the race is tightening as we enter the final weeks of the regular season.

In the National League? Paul Goldschmidt looks like he’s running away with it. Which is all the more impressive considering the other superstars who are MVP contenders this year.

MLB.com voters were asked to rank their top five MVP candidates in each league based on what has happened so far and what they expect will happen in the weeks to come. Players received vote points on a 5-4-3-2-1 scale — five points for a first-place vote, four points for a second-place vote and so on, with 50 voters participating.
