Jaylon Thompson writes about things to look for with the Royals in 2025.
Witt produced another historic campaign in 2024. He led Major League Baseball with a .332 batting average and 211 hits. He added 32 home runs, 31 steals and 109 RBIs in 161 games.
For that, Witt secured multiple awards. He won a Gold Glove, Silver Slugger and was named the MLBPA Heart and Hustle Award winner. However, Witt finished second in AL MVP voting behind Aaron Judge.
Could Witt win MVP in 2025? He remains the Royals’ offensive engine and could have more run-scoring opportunities with the addition of new leadoff hitter Jonathan India.
