It is true that Washington Mudskippers shortstop Jason hit three home runs in a game last week. However, over the course of the Little League season, Jason has struck out in more than half of his at bats, and no player who strikes out that often is truly a great baseball player. Only truly great players deserve to be chosen for the Little League All-Star team, so none of the Mudskippers players deserve to be selected as All-Stars this year.

Which of the following, if true, most strengthens the argument?

(A) Most of the Mudskippers players are truly terrible baseball players
(B) The entire Mudskippers team is currently embroiled in a major cheating scandal.
(C) The other players on Jason’s team are even less likely to be named to the All-Star team this year than is Jason himself.
(D) Jason is the best player on his baseball team.
(E) The other Mudskippers players will refuse to play for the All-Star team unless Jason is selected.
