Schlittler’s MVP Push vs Judge’s Cy Young Vote | New York Yankees News

Cam Schlittler is crushing it on the mound, throwing a six-inning shutout against the Mets and now leading the AL in innings pitched with an elite 1.95 ERA—so good that manager Aaron Boone’s tossing his name into the MVP conversation. But Judge, the three-time MVP himself, isn’t buying it—he respects Schlittler’s dominance but insists the Cy Young Award is where the pitcher belongs. While pitchers rarely win MVP (last one was Kershaw in 2014, Verlander in 2011), Judge’s own MVP buzz has faded as he battles his way back from a rib injury. Since returning, he’s been hitting balls over 100 mph and helping the team go 4-1, even skipping rehab to jump right back in. Boone says Judge’s close to his old self—and for now, winning games is all that matters. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
