Yeah he was going to be a Vol if he didn't sign with Sox

 

He likes hitting in front of Didley

 

Betts is 10 of 21 with seven homers and 13 RBIs in 5 games at Camden Yards this season.

He signed with UT, he's a Vol to didley. He loves UT.

 

Hopefully he joins the Os as a FA. That Vol orange brings out his best.

its not even contrarian, its the consensus and frankly i thought the obvious (Altuve anyways)

 

Trout has the best WAR in baseball, Altuve #2. Thats including NL. 

 

Altuve has a better than 1.000 OPS. thats fucking insane, esp for a 2b. He wins it easily if it ended today. Mookie is at like 890 for OPS, which is awesome but miles off Altuve and altuve runs better and plays a weak hitting position

 

Does any place have odds on it? Altuve has gotta be > ev at this point. Only thing that could hurt him is retarded voters that would use his teams record against him (hate people pointing to team success to decide individual awards)

 

Mookie ahead of Altuve in both fWAR and bWAR    :pop

How much money you put on it pal? Guessing the amount rhymes with hero  :jerk

 

And again all i said at the time was Mookie was clearly not the choice as of then. Tuve has slipped a bit, mookies kept going hot and Boston cant lose which (as stupid as i think it is) does factor into voting

 

Trout is still mvp to me as of now, should be his 3rd or 4th. Voters wont give it to him though with how bad his team is

Just checked both baseball reference and fangraphs. They have Trout a win better than any player in MLB this year (mookie 2nd in BR, 4th in fangraphs) and they will rob the guy out of another mvp cause hes surrounded by Calhoun and CJ Cron instead of Bogearts, Papi, Pedy and Hanley  :doh

 

Hopefully the idiocy of award voters changes one day. Team success should have zero impact on individual awards. Thats what team awards are for
