There should be a Player of the Year award which goes to the best stats and MVP for who played phenomenal and helped bring their team to the next level.
Simple question...who is the best player in baseball....Mike Trout...glad to see baseball’s writers agree.
We need a new award apparently
C'mon guys, let the Angels fans have their distraction from the dumpster fire that franchise is these days.
Trout is amazing. However, it is a completely rational and acceptable argument to vote for a player from a team that is involved in a pennant race. Also, it is perfectly acceptable to vote for a triple crown winner, though Chico argued against it. He likes Trout. Nobody denies he is phenomenal. But the MVP is not his birthright.
C'mon guys, let the Angels fans have their distraction from the dumpster fire that franchise is these days.They have the unquestioned best player in the game and a top 10 payroll, yet haven't won a playoff game in a decade or sniffed a playoff appearance in five seasons. Oh, and they have one of the worst farm systems in the majors and apparently some clubhouse culture issues.Ouch.
Yup, a lot of bad bad bad payroll decisions. Farm system was dead last for awhile, up to 22nd before the trade deadline, dropped back down because we brought a bunch of guys up to the big club.More Tommy John injuries by a mile over any other team the last 8 years had huge impacts. Glad Joe is back home with the club.
No one said it is his birthright, though he got jobbed out of at least one more....my problem with Miguel winning it that year is his defense is average, doesn’t steal bases, etc, etc. There is a reason why one player is more “valuable”...he does more.
Sporting News does MLB Player if the Year...one award, not broken up by league.2019 winner...Mike Trout
Jo Adell is the one to be excited about. That guy has star written all over him. He may finally be the running mate Trout deserves.
Triple crown trumps perceived defensive liability. Shake your fist at the sky all you want.
And? Everyone has literally said he is the POY. Just not the most valuable. Not that hard
Are you his agent? Do you get to move to nowhere Idaho sooner if he gets awards? No one is arguing he is anything less than great.
