correa has been very, very good. lindor has been even better. correa has always been a bit ahead of lindor, offensively, but lindor provides so much surplus defensive value that he's been worth more WAR, overall. and this year, lindor's offense has been better as well, even though correa is still raking.

Definite edge to Lindor at the moment.

He's kind of lousy this year.

Follow-up to some Astros-cheating talk on the post-season thread:

Just a fan survey, so meaningless, but I could see this kind of thing following some of 2017/18 Astros for years. Springer, for some reason, seems to have dodged this.

I might put a pre-season bet down on him for MVP. The odds won't be great--I could even seeing him being a slight favourite--but I think he'll have a great season. Counter-intuitive, I know--guys are supposed to play better going into free-agency, not after they land the big contract--but there are exceptions (Maddux and Bonds come to mind), and it feels like he still hasn't had that one iconic season commensurate with how good he is. He was on his way in 2017 before he got hurt.

^^Carnac the Magnificent...He's really had a miserable season, hasn't he? Not counting abbreviated seasons, career lows in virtually anything that matters.

Aye, there's a reason all those teams saw his film/physical results and hard-passed.

“I don’t understand the Mets," Boras said. “I gave them all of the information. We had them talk to four doctors. They knew the issue the Giants had. And yet, they still call the same doctor the Giants used for his opinion.
