Like I said, this isn't a career year for him, but if I'm making a list of the top 8 then Miggy has to be included in that list. Tied for 2nd in RBI and tied for 3rd in HR in the league.
This coming from the guy who 3 weeks ago was ready to proclaim the NYY WS champs!
I am wrong on a number of occasions when it comes to sports handicapping anyways.
Thats why In defer to you guys and some of the other free cappers before I wager.
ps in all fairness I did as stated make a wager on the Angels, have been adding and now have quite a bit more on them than on the Yankees.
I also don't believe a guy on a real shitty team should win it either. I know guys do but if you finish in last with them, where would you finish without him? Makes no sense to me. Clutch in pressure situations mean alot to me and helping that team WIN also matters.
To me, those Yahoo stats are a great gauge. You get 1 pt. for a single and 4 for a HR. It awards walks, rbi's and everything and it deducts for bad defense and K's. If a guy is at the top of that list, he is having a tremendous year all the way around. Hamilton has 14 more HR's than Pedroia at 4 points a pop and Dustin still has about 50 points more than Josh. He has a ton more than Cabrera (Another guy 14 HR's ahead of him). I think if it is based on HR's, than no, he shouldn't win it. If it is a guy who does everything, maybe he should!

Serious question and i have not looked into it BUT ... If he is having such a great year, why are there 20 guys from the A.L. ahead of him in Yahoo? He must really suck at something to have that happen??
