Pete Crow-Armstrong has surged to a clear lead in the 2026 NL MVP race on the strength of his all-around dominance for the Cubs, topping leaderboards in WAR, slugging, and defensive metrics while posting a .276/.375/.550 line with 33 home runs, 32 stolen bases, and elite center-field play that leads MLB in outs above average. Shohei Ohtani, the prior consensus favorite seeking a fourth straight award, remains close behind thanks to comparable offensive production but has seen his two-way value limited by a knee injury that sidelined him from the mound since early July. Recent expert polls reflect the shift, with Crow-Armstrong earning the majority of first-place votes as Ohtani’s pitching return timeline stays uncertain heading into September.
