Hey guys (gender inclusive)? Guys. I hate to interrupt. But listen for a
second.
Look, I know that Miguel Cabrera is an awesome baseball player, and I know he
had a huge game last night, and that he's currently two homers back of Josh
Hamilton from being in a position to win the first Triple Crown since 1967
(as I write this, he appears to be about five points up over Trout in the
batting race, and six RsBI over Hamilton). That'd be a pretty amazing
accomplishment, and I know that it's gotta be tempting to go around touting
his MVP credentials.
我知道肥卡布是很了不起的球员 即将挑战1967年后首次三冠王 (注: 已经达成了)
这是了不起的成就
Here's the thing, though, guys: there's no AL MVP discussion this year. That
was canceled. I'm sorry, I thought you'd heard. It's Mike Trout. They made
the announcement, like, two months ago. I don't know what rumors you've heard
or whatever, but nope, that hasn't changed. It's still off.
但美联MVP非Mike Trout莫属
The various Wins Above Replacement measures break it down like this (through
Tuesday; they'll tick a bit in Miggy's favor when the numbers are updated
tomorrow):
WARP fWAR rWAR
Miguel Cabrera 5.2 6.3 6.1
Mike Trout 8.0 9.3 10.2
WAR(P) shouldn't be taken as gospel
