while I think a strong argument can be made for Kluber and maybe even Judge (126 R!), those Altuve numbers are just too good ... .350 with a .415 OBP - he's my vote.

Yep, plus sbs pushed me over.

Some great deserving talent this year.

I wish there was a community accepted defense metric to look at because I wonder how good or bad Jose Ramirez is. Half a season at third, half a season at second, versatility is important on a world series contender.

Plus throw in his doubles and triples - but I still voted for Altuve - but I think Jose makes a strong Case.
