A .800 OPS DH doesn't come anywhere near the top for me, but this is pretty cool:
"[Yelich] told me on the bench, straight up, it was 8-1, he said, 'We're going to win this game,’” Brewers manager Pat Murphy said. “How do you make that statement? He looked at me and said, 'We're going to win this game.'
“And then... it happened.”
It’s true, said left-hander DL Hall, the first of six Milwaukee relievers called into duty after the All-Star rookie Misiorowski returned from the injured list only to be saddled with more earned runs (five) than he recorded outs (four). Hall didn’t fare much better, and he was so frustrated after the Reds blooped and bounced him to death during his portion of Cincinnati’s seven-run second inning that he attempted to rearrange the dugout bench with his fists.
“As soon as I’m in the dugout, Yeli is letting me know, ‘Hey we’re going to win this game. Don’t worry. We’re going to score runs. Just keep them right there.'”
“So that’s the mindset I went out there with,” Hall said “Just keep them right there.”

He may not be my MVP, but he's unquestionably the leader, and that is valuable in its own right.
