"...it was no surprise that Yelich was named National League MVP on Thursday when balloting by the Baseball Writers Association of America was revealed. Yelich was the runaway winner, getting 29 of 30 first-place votes. The other first-place vote went to New York Mets pitcher Jacob deGrom.

Rollie Fingers was the American League winner in the split 1981 season, and Ryan Braun claimed NL honors in 2011, the last time the Brewers went to the playoffs until their breakthrough in 2018, led by Yelich."
I love the dude who voted for deGrom, although, truth be told, it was crystal clear that Yelich and Betts were the guys this year.
Anyway, congrats to both. It's because of that great Yelich season that my son's getting a Yelich jersey for Christmas this year. Nice work.
