We already knew that neither Nolan Arenado nor Charlie Blackmon would win the NL MVP. But we didn’t know where they’d ultimately land in the voting, or how close it would be. The voting was extremely tight. Giancarlo Stanton won with 302 points and 10 first place votes, which barely edged Joey Votto, who had 300 points and 10 first place votes. Paul Goldschmidt finished in a relatively distant third, with 239 points. Arenado came in fourth and was close behind with 229. Blackmon ended up fifth with 205 points.
Arenado and Blackmon were both on all 30 ballots.
