1. 2023 Yandy Diaz TB 1b-3b AS/MVP-6/SS AL batting champion .330/.410/.522 excellent first baseman very playable at 3rd. Would be the offensively-challenged Rays best hitter for average and a huge addition to the franchise! https://365.strat-o-matic.com/player/93640/2023/1/2023

2. 2023 Mookie Betts LAD RF/2B. Betts best year overall (.307 .408 .579), most balanced and career high in Homeruns (39). 1e0-3 in RF. Also can play 2b 2e6 https://365.strat-o-matic.com/player/91946/2023/1/2023

3. 2009 Ryan Howard Phi 1b .279/.360 /.571 1b 3e15 8r 37 doubles 45 homeruns 141 rbi in game injury risk. Howard was a huge threat in the middle of those Philly lineups in the mid/late 2000’s. Only has 1 card this one is very different than that one. https://365.strat-o-matic.com/player/532/2009/1/2009

5. 1967 Hoyt Wilhelm, White Sox, RHRP, 3 inning endurance. 8-3 1.31 1.034 12 saves. Career best ERA. Wilhelm was the first relief pitcher admitted to the HOF, the first pitcher to have 1000+ appearances & 50+ years later is 6th all time in games pitched. His 2 relief pitcher cards don’t do him justice as arguably the best relief pitcher of his era and Wilhelm is long overdue for a more usable relief pitcher card.

6. 1904 Fred Glade, SLB, RHP, 18-15 (on a team that won only 65 games), 2.27 era, 2.17 fip, 1.059 whip. The "Millionaire Ballplayer" (because of his family's ownership of what would eventually become ConAgra). Supposedly the fastest pitcher of the era. Pitched à la Luis Tiant, with a 180-degree twist. 16th in career FIP. No card.

7. 1885 Buck Ewing, NYG, C-RF-3B-CF, RH, .304/.330/.471. No card in the set like this one. HOF Catcher rated 1(-4)e16. Stealing A *4-7(17-14). Run 1-15. Bunt-B/H&R-B, 15 DO, 12 TR, 6 HR. 4.6 WAR. Only 2 gbA per side. Clutch neutral.

9. 2023 Corey Seager TEX Left hand hitting 3R Shortstop with a 1013 OPS. Will be very cheap with a 3 injury rating and 312 rating. https://365.strat-o-matic.com/player/92663/2023/1/2023

10. 1962 Ernie Banks CHN 1b played more games at 1B than he did at SS, yet all we have are SS cards for him. I'd like to nominate the 1962 Banks 1B card. https://365.strat-o-matic.com/player/30476/1660/1/60

11. 1917 Art Nehf Boston Braves 1.01 Whip 233 Innings is by far his best year, and a dramatic improvement over his current cards, none of which are even his top 5 years.

12. 1971 Willie Montanez PHI OF Career high in HR (30) & RBI (99). Max 3 game injury. LH power hitter dominates righties. Huge improvement on current '77 card. https://365.strat-o-matic.com/player/738395/1670/1/70

13. 2016 Madison Bumgarner, SF, SP, his best season overall in terms of ERA+ (146), 2.74 ERA, 1.02 WHIP, 226 IP (career high), 251 strikeouts (career high), 54 walks, 6N for hitting. https://365.strat-o-matic.com/player/91308/2016/1/2016

14. 1978 Jon Matlack Tex P - Set a career best in era (2.27) and WHIP (1.12). Rangers only have 2 useable Left handed starters. Matlack spent 6 years with Texas and this card would surely get some use.

16. 1923 Charlie Jamieson, LF, Cleveland Indians. We have 3 Jamieson seasons, but not his best! He hit .345, his OBP was .422 with 36 doubles, 12 triples, 2 homers and 18 steals, plus he is bulletproof this season!

17. 2008 Milton Bradley TEX DH/OF. 321 .435(led league) .563 NO CARD. Volatile player's best season. If you can deal with his off-field (& on-field) behavior, it's a great card! https://365.strat-o-matic.com/player/123/2008/1/2008

18. 1983 John Denny PHI SP 19-6 with 1.16 WHIP, only 9 HR in 242 innings. CY Young Award Winner which ought to be included in ATG. Should also be slight upgrade on his only card in the set (1978 STL) and helps pitching starved Phillies EXP franchise. https://365.strat-o-matic.com/player/832961/1680/1/80

26. 1954 Yogi Berra. Berra won three MVP awards yet only one is represented in the set. This one has his second best on base average. His third best OPS+. His career high for RBIs. One of the greatest catchers of all time deserves one of his greatest seasons represented in the set

27. 1983 Jody Davis, Cubs .271 24 84 .315 .480 .795 Career highs in H, HR, BA, SLG, OPS, OPS+ & TB. Long time Cubs fan favorite would be a big improvement over Randy Hundley in the Post WWII & Expansion Era player set and would be a decent platoon partner with Rick Wilkins in franchise leagues. This is Davis' best season and best card. http://365.strat-o-matic.com/player/832824/1680/1/80

Well to be fair the triple crown wasn’t as rare then either. Hornsby’s triple I’m 42 was the 7th in 20 seasons including 4 times in the thirties. After his 47 triple crown there would only be 4 more in the next 77 seasons and only one in the last 57. It impresses us a whole lot more than the guys in the 40s

But I'm not saying he deserved the MVP because he won the Triple Crown, I'm saying it because he was demonstrably better than the guy who won it:
42 Ted: 141 R, 37 HR. 137 RBI, .356/.499/.648, 1.147 OPS, 10.5 WAR
42 Joe Gordon: 88 R, 18 HR, 103 RBI, .322/.409/.491, .900 OPS, 7.7 WAR

47 Ted: 125 R, 32 HR, 114 RBI, .343/.499/.634, 1.133 OPS, 9.5 WAR
47 Joe Dimaggio: 97 R, 20 HR, 97 RBI, .315/.391/.522, .913 OPS, 4.7 WAR

Well what you are showing is that Ted was demonstrably better offensively than the guys who won. You know as well as I do that, rightly or wrongly, that isn’t what the MVP award has been about. That players win because 1) their team wins and 2) they are perceived (rightly or wrongly) to be leaders on the team. It also helps if 3) they have a nice narrative to go along with it. The MVP has never been about “the best offensive player” whether it should or shouldn’t be is a different discussion.
