Way back in July, I wrote that Story, the Colorado Rockies All-Star shortstop, could slowly work his way into the MVP conversation. At the time, I received a few eye rolls and jeers, and was accused of creating click bait, as we all knew that Nolan Arenado was the real MVP candidate. But a lot has changed since then and it may be time to enter Trevor Story into that conversation with 25 games left in the season.
If you don’t believe me that Story deserves some consideration with Arenado, take a look at how their stats match up side by side.
