No names....lets just look at the numbers...
gtiracer06 Posted October 1, 2004 Posted October 1, 2004 no doubt the two guys with 40 and 43 HR's should be the top two contenders...although i know who they are
gantrules Posted October 1, 2004 Author Posted October 1, 2004 LOL....damn you!!!!! I'm going with the last one.....
Ramius Posted October 1, 2004 Posted October 1, 2004 i'm going to go on a limb and say that Santana should win bith the Cy Young and the AL MVP...cuz honeslty, the sox would still be decent without manny, and the yanks would still be decent with out sheff, but the twins would be nowhere without Johan...plain and simple hes the reason why the team made it this season...

gantrules Posted October 1, 2004 Author Posted October 1, 2004 I'm from a different school on this one Ramius.... I believe the MVP award should be given only to an everyday player. reason being that a starting pitcher normally only makes 30-40 apperances every year.

Draconator Posted October 1, 2004 Posted October 1, 2004 Here's my take. Numbers are fantastic, but it's at what time of the game the hit's occur, is the telling feature of the M.V.P. Tejada when he won the MVP for the A's, how many game winning hits did he have? That's the deciding factor. But to stay with the original post, I would take the numbers of #1 I could see Santana winning the MVP. If he doesn't win the Cy Young, a investigation needs to be launched! And, Bobby Crosby IS the AL Rookie of the Year. Seeing that kid play day in, day out, you know he's gonna be someone very special!
gantrules Posted October 1, 2004 Author Posted October 1, 2004 I didn't even put Miguel on the list b/c his OBP is 40 points below these other 4.
Steven in MD Posted October 1, 2004 Posted October 1, 2004 Here is the problem....Ichiro Suzuki will steal votes, though his team sucks. He will steal these votes from players like Santana and Vlad. My take is the MVP will go to Curt Schilling, since he deserves the Cy Young, and will not get it. Actually I am a Yankees fan, but reality is....Sox would not be in the playoffs without Schilling.
gantrules Posted October 1, 2004 Author Posted October 1, 2004 I disagree. Schilling plays once every five days. Even if he won all thirty of his games he still could only account for 1/5 of the games the Sox played. And I think Schilling will get the Cy b/c he's been around longer.
Draconator Posted October 1, 2004 Posted October 1, 2004 I didn't even put Miguel on the list b/c his OBP is 40 points below these other 4. 52086[/snapback] Oh. Don't get me wrong. I wasn't banging to get him on the list. When he won it in 2002, He did have great numbers, but I can very vivdly remember him hitting a home run 2 sections over from me to win #18 of the A's 20 Game Streak. Tejada that year had many, many game winning hits. IMHO, Crosby may be a better defensive SS over Tejada right now, but it was Tejada's bat and his clutch hits that has the A's battling the Angles for the AL West this weekend. The game winning hits haven't come as much for the A's this year. That and the Big 3 turning into the sub-par 3 this month. Thank God for Harden!

Draconator Posted October 1, 2004 Posted October 1, 2004 hey crosby has been fairly clutch for us as of late... 52187[/snapback] This is very true! He delivered when we needed him this past week. Tejada did it on a more consistant basis. Crosby I can see, developing into the exact same type of role.
The Poojer Posted October 1, 2004 Posted October 1, 2004 You need to give us team results, because the MVP is supposed to be just that...Most Valuable To the Team, without that player would the team have remained status quo, or would the team be in the crapper.
