He's so good they just ignore him. It should be renamed the 'Player of the Week Not Names Mike Trout' award.

Yeah, except for 8 games in August, he wore everyone out this season:

.400+ OBP every month? Him and Trout need to be our 2-3 batters. That's insanely good.

that chart is Trout's numbers, I believe.

But I do like Trout and Ohtani at 2-3.

Oops. Missed that. Thought it looked too good to be true.

1) He's a Yankee

2) See No.1

3) They disregard analytics (which show conclusively that not only is Ohtani #1, Andujar might not even be #2)

yah.  what a mystery.  

[rottiesworld]

MLB Network a re full of shit. The only thing they know is Yankees and Red Sux. If the player is on those times, chances are you already know they will be picked.

Just the mere fact he is the only player other than Babe Ruth or only player in history to do certain things means it should be an absolute lock for ROTY.

the one thing that voters would never take into account is that if Ohtani wasn't a pitcher, I bet he could be a gold glove OFer (or even 3bman).

I am writing a story this week about his ROY chances, including comments from many writers.

[Troll Daddy]

Is there a reason why Ohtani doesn’t get ROY
