Will Bobby Wit Jr. (25) become the best player after making the 21st century's best shortstop season with a perfect airlift.메이저놀이터

The U.S. MLB Network mentioned the number of fielders expected for the 2025 season on Wednesday (Korea time). The runner-up was Wit Jr., who ranked second in this category last year.

According to the report, Wit Jr. is expected to record FWAR 7.3 in the 2025 season. Gunner Henderson of 7.1 and Aaron Judge of 6.9 were named.

In addition, Juan Soto, Mookie Betts, Julio Rodriguez, Fernando Tatis Jr., Shohei Ohtani, Jose Ramirez and Francisco Rodriguez formed the TOP10.

Of course, the best FWAR doesn't guarantee an MVP award. However, since the Saber Matrix became popular, this figure has had a huge impact on MVP voting

If Wit Jr. rises to the top of the FWAR as announced this time, it can be said that he is at least more likely to win MVP than last year.

Earlier, Wit Jr. had a batting average of 0.332 and 32 home runs, 109 RBIs, 125 runs, 211 hits, 31 steals, and an on-base percentage of 0.389 OPS of 0.977 in 161 games last season.

In addition, Wit Jr. showed amazing performance with FWAR 10.3 by adding perfect defense and excellent base running. This is the highest number among shortstop in the 21st century.

However, the team did not receive even a single first-place vote in the American League MVP voting. Judge took all 30 first-place votes. Wit Jr. took 30 second-place votes.

This is due to Judge's career high record of 11.2 FWAR. Also, Judge's wRC+ stands at a whopping 218. No one expected Wit Jr. to win the award.

Wit Jr., who became the second most unfair MVP in Major League history, is drawing attention to whether he will be able to win the MVP award by reaching the top of the FWAR in the 2025 season.
