With the recent announcement of Shohei Ohtani winning the NL MVP and Aaron Judge taking home the AL MVP, the conversation around player value and impact in baseball is heating up. Ohtani's dual-threat ability continues to redefine what it means to be an MVP, while Judge's power-hitting prowess keeps him in the spotlight.
But let's pivot to a different narrative: Triston McKenzie. Once seen as a potential Cy Young candidate, he now finds himself in a precarious position after a series of injuries and disappointing performances. The Guardians have decided to avoid arbitration with him, but is this a smart move or a gamble that could backfire?
What do you think? Can McKenzie reclaim his former glory, or is he destined to become a low-leverage relief pitcher? Given the Guardians' current rotation struggles, does he have a path back to being a starter, or is it time for the team to cut their losses?
Also, with the Red Sox reportedly willing to pay the competitive balance tax in 2025, how does this shift the landscape of the AL East? Are we witnessing a new era of spending in baseball, or is it just a temporary blip?
Let’s hear your thoughts! What bold predictions do you have for McKenzie’s future? And how do you see the Red Sox's financial strategy impacting their competitiveness in the coming seasons?
