## Resource

Bobby Witt Jr.’s MVP bid hit a major snag when he exited Thursday’s game against the Cardinals with right knee discomfort, forcing a pinch-hit substitution and leaving fans and analysts wondering how serious the injury is. The Royals’ standout shortstop, who’s been on fire this season with elite all-around play and a shot at another top MVP finish, stayed in the game briefly after hitting a homer — but the damage may be more than just a minor tweak. With tests pending and the full extent unknown, Witt’s health could now determine whether his MVP campaign survives or stalls. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
