The Yankees' Aaron Judge and the Dodgers' Shohei Ohtani continue to lead their respective league in MLB.com's latest Most Valuable Player poll. Each superstar was at the top of the past two polls as well.

Aaron Judge has a right flexor strain, affecting his MVP chances. Cal Raleigh, with 40 home runs, is now favoured.

Raleigh is second in RBIs (86, one ahead of Judge), and thanks to Judge's flexor strain that landed him on the 10-day IL, Raleigh has improbably become the new favorite to win the AL MVP award at BetMGM, with -135 odds to Judge's +105. Detroit Tigers pitcher Tarik Skubal (40-1) has the next-best odds.
