Gunnar Henderson 2024

[RVAOsFan]

This is a great read. Love this young group of men our Orioles have drafted, developed and are winning with.

Looks like Gunnar and Judge are running away from the AL MVP field as things stand.

Os media should lean into that two-horse race if they keep it up

WAR race. 

[cnmilton]

WAR. Huh, yeah

What is it good for?

Absolutely nothing. 

(Sorry, couldn't resist)

You know who's fourth in AL rWAR behind Henderson, Judge and Witt?

Jarren Duran.  Where did he come from?

(Soto is fourth in AL fWAR)

We get a comp pick if Gunnar finishes top 3 in mvp rating, I think. Same way we got it for his ROTY.

Players who made an Opening Day roster and accrued the service time but didn’t factor in any awards that year retain PPI eligibility. They need to place in the top three for MVP or Cy Young before hitting arbitration. That typically allows for a three-year window.

Ah. So you can only get one pick per player? That’s a bummer. Reasonable, I suppose. But a bummer nonetheless

Gunnar doing a good job of hitting the ball to all fields.

[Malike]

He's obviously having a great season but his numbers would be nutty if he hit more fly balls. As hard as he hammers the ball it's rarely a fly ball.

Elias has to get off his butt and trade him. Peak trade value now.

It would take a Teams entire top 10.

I was definitely joking around, but I bet the combined career WAR of several if not the majority of teams top ten will be less than the WAR the Orioles get out of Henderson. 
 

ps. The entire top ten of a team, not the ten lists of multiple teams. Is that clear? My sleep gummy is kicking in, I’m in a legal state, and, well, grammar and writing clarity is getting challenging.
