Yankees Superstar Tipped as Front-Runner for Most Valuable Player Title, Insider Predicts

New York fans certainly should be excited about the club’s newest slugger

New York is considered one of the top clubs in the American League and could end up competing for a World Series title. One of the biggest reasons why certainly was the addition of superstar slugger Juan Soto.

Soto is sure to help the club out in a major way and The Athletic’s Jim Bowden even predicted that he will end up winning the American League Most Valuable Player.

“I considered picking his teammate Aaron Judge, the (Seattle Mariners’) Julio Yarnel Rodríguez, or the (Texas Rangers’) Corey Seager but went with Soto, who I think will have the best year of his career because he’ll hit in front of (or behind) Judge, he’ll benefit from hitting in the confines of Yankee Stadium, and he’ll be playing for a free-agent contract at the breakout age of 25,” Bowden said.

“My favorite long shot is Royce Lewis, who demonstrated down the stretch last season why he was the first-overall pick in 2017, showing his MVP-caliber talent by finishing with 15 home runs in only 217 at-bats and a .372 on-base percentage.”

Soto is one of the best players in baseball and now will be able to hit in Yankee Stadium which only should make him look better.

The Yankees will have a lot more to think about than accolades at the end of the season, but members of the club already are being mentioned as candidates for prestigious awards.
