Under slightly different circumstances, Jolly might've been able to win with a pitcher. Excluding Ohtani, Carlos Zambrano had 28 hits in 2008 for the Cubs, Jason Marquis 27 in 2005 with the Cards, and a few guys hit 24 (including Zambrano, also in '05). That's the kind of thing you only go for if you're sure on both the guy and the year, and if you either trail by only a little or lead going into your final pick.

Roberto Alomar's last 2 years in Cleveland. 189 in 2000, 193 in 2001. Victor Martinez would have been a good catcher pick for 2005, 2006 or 2007 (not sure if he would have been eligible at catcher in his Tigers years).

Even Alomar 182 in '99 would have been good. I think problem is Alomar changes teams so many times and only played in the AL Central for 3 years and they weren't positive which years he was an Indian. They seem to hate picking a player in a year he wasn't eligible for this draft.

4:10 knew Jose Ramirez’s best season was 2017. He finished 3rd in MVP voting, getting 1 first place vote. You can argue all day rather Altuve or Judge should have won. It was an odd year since it seemed like Judge should have got it but Altuve had 27 first place votes honestly just think voters didn’t like Judges horrible August stretch when he set a record for most strikeouts in like 20 games or whatever. But one thing is for sure either Judge or Altuve were going to win MVP in 2017 yet somehow Jose Ramirez got 1 first place vote.
