mbillie1's baseball awards cy young: Tom Glavine (given ironically) gold glove: Jose Reyes (given with favoritism) MVP: Matt Holliday player I most want to punch in the sack: David Eckstein not MVP: Jimmy Rollins [/ QUOTE ] How is your MVP not Guillermo Mota? If it wasn't for him the Phils would have finished 2nd again. |

I love the annual bashing of the MVP winner by stat-heads who would prefer they just hand the trophy to the guy with the highest WARP or VORP or whatever statistical baseline they prefer [/ QUOTE ] Not whatever statistical baseline they prefer. Thats what the actual voters are doing. What the statheads would like is for them to hand the award to whichever guy maxes out the statistical baseline(s) that are objectively best as per correlation to winning. Its a pretty significant difference. |

Re: jimmy rollins is a yambag
I think Matt Holliday clearly should have won. The 20/20/20/20 thing is obviously very impressive. However, Curtis Granderson did the same thing and didn't sniff the MVP or the win a Gold Glove in the AL, despite being one of the top 5 defensive centerfielders in the MLB.
Looking at Holliday's absurd numbers, I think he got absolutely jobbed. |
