Doesn’t matter bro.

Harper MVP. He’s a better hitter than Ohtani.

2nd in all of MLB in WAR

WAR factors offense and defense, welcome to watching baseball for the first time.

He leads MLB in OPS, wOBA, wRC+, and is 2nd in WAR. More than earning his contract, he has been the best player in baseball the second half of this season and it's not even close.

Phillies 1 game back in the division now, might fuck around and win the division and if they do that then Harper will DEFINITELY win MVP.

So you dont actually understand what you posted? If you knew how WAR is calculated, you wouldnt for a second think it includes how well an outfielder plays defense.

I completely understand what i posted.

And yes, WAR accounts for defensive value as well. Harper isn't a strong defender these days, but his offense more than makes up for it without question.

Still might win MVP

Hurts his chances though.

Harper is now the current betting favorite for NL MVP.
