Baseball’s 2020 BBWAA Awards Week came to an end with tonight’s main event — the AL and NL MVP awards. Naturally, there was plenty of interest in the MVP vote for the National League since the first baseman for our Braves was the presumptive favorite to win the award. Still, this isn’t just the NL’s night and we had to figure out who the MVP of the Junior Circuit would be before the Senior Circuit’s announcement was made.
The 2020 AL MVP award ended up going to Jose Abreu. The whole announcement had a bit of an AL Central vibe to it, since 2015 MVP, current Twins (and former Braves) third baseman Josh Donaldson made the announcement and Cleveland’s Jose Ramirez ended up finishing in second place.
