8. I admit that I prefer to have an MVP that hit 385 than one who hit 200. But there is more.

They both produced 9 runs in the games that the Red Sox won. Runs produced is RBIs plus runs scored minus the number of home runs.

In the game that the Sox lost JBJ scored a run. Devers did not play in that game.

They were comparable in OPS (On base percentage plus slugging). Devers was 1.082. Bradley was 1.067.

Bradley had a great series and he definitely produced when they needed him to. Like I said, I like him a lot. He seems like a cool guy. I just prefered Devers.

If Devers has a good World Series than maybe he will win the Babe Ruth Award, which isn't sanctioned by MLB, and goes to the best player in the entire postseason.
