For the AL, all indications are the New York Yankees slugger Aaron Judge will secure his second MVP award in three seasons. And in the NL, Los Angeles Dodgers superstar Shohei Ohtani appears to have his third MVP award locked up.

The long ball added Judge to a short list of players to have multiple 55+ home run seasons. Babe Ruth, Ken Griffey Jr., Sammy Sosa, and Mark McGwire are the only other players to do so in MLB history.
