A star on the rise joins a pair of former MVPs on Ben Verlander's latest MLB Team of the Week! See who made the cut.
Another week of the MLB season has come and gone, which means it's time for my Team of the Week! You know the drill: I choose 11 standouts, one at each position, who have been great over the past week. As is our theme recently, this list is a combination of recognizable superstars and some underrated contributors who might not get as much shine because of the team they play on. Two former MVPs made the cut this week, as well as another well-known slugger who was off to a moderate start.
That AL Central race has become MLB's biggest surprise this season, and while there are a lot of players helping the Royals take the next step, none except perhaps ageless wonder Salvador Pérez are as important to that success as Witt. Álvarez started the season slower than usual, which factored in to the Astros' awful start. This past week seems to be the start of his return to form, and not a moment too soon for Houston. He's back in the MVP race, folks.
