but it always does.

 

I know.

 

Which is why the MVP means nothing.

 

Justin Morneau won it? What a f***ing joke.

[YazsTripleCrown]

Morneau deserved it.

[CrespoBlows]

Morneau deserved it.

 

 

Why?

If someone from the Twins should have gotten it, it was Mauer. What he did as a CATCHER was more valuable than what Morneau did as a 1B.

Agreed. Morneau was the third most valuable player on his team, behind Santana and Mauer -- he sure as hell wasn't the most valuable in the League. Jeter deserved the award.

 

Question, guys -- I know he doesn't get much mention, but where does Matt Holliday stand in regards to the NL MVP? I think his numbers at least deserve mentioning.
