Hall of Merit — A Look at Baseball's All-Time Best Saturday, November 05, 2022Most Meritorious Player: 2022 BallotHere are the specific rules for this election: Candidate Eligibility: Any North American professional baseball player is eligible for the Most Meritorious Player (MMP) award including players on independent teams. Voters should consider the player’s on-field contribution to Major League Baseball (MLB) team(s) in that season only. If part of the season was spent outside MLB, that value may be considered as well. However, the player’s on-field contribution should be judged in relation to the highest level major league, not relative to a minor league. A season may include playoff or World Series games but does not include spring training or exhibition games. No credit will be given for games not played due to injury, wartime service or contract holdouts. Ballot Length: For 2022, each voter should rank 15 players. Voter eligibility: All voters who did not vote in the previous year’s election must post a preliminary ballot in the ballot discussion thread. All voters must fill out a complete ballot. Voters must briefly explain their ballot choices. One person, one vote; anyone determined to have voted with multiple accounts will be banned and their votes will be disallowed. The MMP ballot committee has authority to exclude any ballot that does not meet these requirements. Scoring: Points will be given in descending order with the highest-ranked player receiving 15 points, the second highest 14 points, and so on until the last player on the ballot receives 1 point. The player with the highest point total will be named the Most Meritorious Player. In case of a tie, the tiebreaker will be number of first place votes. If the tiebreaker does not determine a winner the players will share the title of Most Meritorious Player. Balloting will close at 4pm EST on |

1. kcgard2 Posted: November 05, 2022 at 06:27 PM (#6104359)1. Aaron Judge
2. Shohei Ohtani
3. Sandy Alcantara - with the rest of the pack so closely jumbled for position players, Alcantara distances himself from the pitching pack more clearly so he moves to 3
4. Nolan Arenado
5. Manny Machado
6. Paul Goldschmidt
7. Freddie Freeman
8. Yordan Alvarez
9. JT Realmuto - moving up for the same reason as Alcantara

19. Xander Bogaerts
20. Jose Altuve
1) Aaron Judge
2) Shohei Ohtani - I predict a lot of ballots starting like this
3) JT Realmuto - catcher bonus is real here, playoff bonus closes the gap to a virtual tie with Ohtani
4) Sandy Alcantara - lots of innings, is that still allowed?
5) Nolan Arenado - outstanding defensive season
6) Andres Gimenez
7) Manny Machado
8) Paul Goldschmidt

1. Aaron Judge - he also played half his games in CF and was pretty good. And he's 6'7" 280.
2. Shohei Ohtani - arm seemed to get stronger as the season progressed.
3. Paul Goldschmidt - Mize/Pujols type season, unfortunately September saw a swoon.

Marking those as Jose Ramirez and Yordan Alvarez, let me know if that is incorrect. Full names are helpful.
Is it possible to move him up to #6 and push the others down accordingly? I apologize, DM, but I forgot to give him a catcher bonus in my haste to get my ballet done.
Done
1. Aaron Judge ($33.50M)
2. Shohei Ohtani (27.04) - most valuable player who played pitcher, but not MMPitcher based on pitching alone
3. Paul Goldschmidt (20.18) - NL MMP
4. J.T. Realmuto (17.76)
5. Yordan Alvarez (17.58)
6. Nolan Arenado (16.62)
7. Freddie Freeman (16.27)
8. Andres Giminez (15.75)
9. Mookie Betts (14.64)
10. Manny Machado (14.29)
11. Julio Rodriguez (13.80)
12. Jose Ramirez (13.38)
13. Mike Trout (13.22)
14. Juan Soto (12.82)
15. Sandy Alcantara (11.87) - MMPitcher
16-20. Altuve, Verlander (AL MMPitcher), Riley, Cease, Lindor.
1. Aaron Judge—An absolutely historic season, with Fangraphs & Baseball-Reference crediting him with double-digit WAR, leading the league in several major offensive categories while playing an acceptable CF.
2. Shohei Ohtani—even better than last year, and in most any other season would again be the MMP. The 2nd best pitcher in the AL.
3. Nolan Arenado—Very close in value to his 1B teammate, with both Fangraphs & Baseball-Reference giving a slight edge to Arenado, he slots one spot ahead.
4. Paul Goldschmidt—See Nolan Arenado.
5. Manny Machado—According to Fangraphs, Machado was similar in value to Arenado & Goldshmidt, while Baseball-Reference has him 1 win behind. That is enough to rate him in the top 5.
6. Sandy Alcantara—Baseball-Reference absolutely loves Alcantara, rating him as the best player in the NL. Fangraphs is not as entusiastic, having him 1.5 wins below the top 3.
7. Yordan Alvarez—Missing a month's worth of games hurts Alvarez, placing him below the top 5, but had a spectacular offensive season primarily at DH.
8. Andres Gimenez—Supplemented above-average middle-infield defense with a very good offensive year, loses the tie-breaker w Yordan based on Fangraphs slightly greater enthusiasm for the DH/OF.
9. Freddie Freeman
10. Mookie Betts
11. J.T. Realmuto
12. Aaron Nola
13. Mike Trout—The Angels' CF obviously is hurt by missing over 40 games; 'twould be fascinating to see where he would've ranked if he had been healthy all year.
14. Francisco Lindor
15. Jose Ramirez
