Witt, who will be 25 years old on Saturday, is fifth in victories above the replacement this season.
The athletic story included a number of comments on Witt of anonymous players. Here are some of these quotes.

Another shared this: “He has no crazy size like (Aaron) judge or ohtani; It is quite regular, but has an incredible talent. Last year, it was the first time that I saw him live, and it was barrel, barrel, barrel. It was unreal.
And here is a third: “He’s great. He’s really great in all the tools you want: defense, arms, speed, contact, power. Good guy. Fun to watch.”
