Poetry in Motion: The MVP Performance of Ian Desmond

Ian Desmond should be an MVP candidate. I realize there is no way he will win. In fact, he probably won't finish in the top ten in voting. In fact, I already told you back in May why Jose Altuve should be MVP, but I'm going to make a case for him as a finalist anyway so […]

It's Week 19.
