Are we going to get a Kris Bryant MVP series diamond as a set headliner?

Okay guys, I concede. It’s just that in my opinion, the best offensive stats are stuff like OPS, wOBA, True Avg. and Votto led Stanton in all three. I’ll give you the home runs (although I don’t want to hear a thing about RBIs) and maybe the defense, although it’s tough to compare outfield defense to infield defense.
It’s subjective for sure and I understand the value to Stanton. It’s just that he’s a certain type of hitter, and Votto is a completely different type of hitter, and I’d rather have more guys like 2017 Votto than 2017 Stanton in my lineup. I don’t think you can say Stanton was the CLEAR winner. He only won by a vote anyway, IIRC. -

I’d love to use 2017 mvp Joey Votto. Oh wait...
You can! Sort of...

We need them to bring back some 2017 Finest cards. That card art was fantastic.

I tip my hat to you sir.
And yes, I agree, Votto had a slight slight edge on him in those categories. I brought up the traditional HR RBI point as in there's still a lot of relic voters out there.. I don't agree with RBI either but some of these writers were around to vote for George Bell in 1987...

For sure! That was before I started in DD, I’d love to try them out, especially if we don’t have a season to get any 2020 Finest (fingers crossed).

If we don't, they should have fans vote for each team's finest, then maybe add top 10 or 20 not picked based on WAR the last couple years..

I think they should do most of the recent mvp winners for sure! Maybe skip Altuve though lol
What's interesting about Altuve in 2017 is that his away splits were much better than his home splits... Most of the indications I saw of the Astros cheating was for home games.

Ya that's true, and interesting. Regardless if it helped him or not, it still happened...
Even then I'd take Judge's year in a clean fight... -
As a Mets fan I would love to see a Prime 2013 Matt Harvey or a CY Young DeGrom. Even as a Mets fan tho under no circumstances do I want to see CY Young Dickey. No knuckleballers please.

Harvey was the man in 2013.
Maybe never, but i'd love to see a 1985 Dwight Gooden. -
