He is carrying his team to the playoffs, just like Manny did with the Dodgers. An MVP puts up big numbers in big situations, and helps his team be successful. A-Rod winning for Texas doesn't happen a lot, so don't cite that as an example. It should be between Braun and Manny. |
Look a little closer and you will see I didn't make the poll smarty pants! Ludwick more valuable to the Cards than Pujols? LMFAO!!!!! You obviously don't understand baseball if you think that! Hmmmm, who would you rather pitch to in a tie game needing a hit to win? I bet no team in baseball pitches to Pujols because he is better! Better clutch hitter, higer average, more consistant, better leader, he is irreplacable! Where were the Brewers before CC? Yeah, 8 games out. CC goes 8-2 with an ERA in the low 2's and 4 CG's and they are tied for the Wild Card. I bet Braun isn't even top 5 when the vote comes out. Hell, I'll say it right now, Pujols will have ATLEAST 60% of the 1st place votes if not 70%. Manny only has 50 or so games in the NL. He isn't going to win although I think he and CC are both deserving. So its between Pujols, Delgado, Wright, Howard, and maybe Utley or someone else. Pujols wins going away.
So Mac, what is your source on this Cantu/Ramirez Florida press story? I looked all over Florida newspaper websites and found nothing. Also, I didn't make this poll but if you look at Delgado's numbers, he and Wright are both deserving to be in this discussion. If you noticed in my earlier posts, I am the one who said Wright should be included.
