    if anyone deserves it, it's Miggy.

    i like him a lot. He seems like a really cool guy and he's one of the best ever.

    We can agree to disagree. When a guy hits for the cycle and almost does it again the following year....IMO that's the best player.

    Trout is already a great player...can't argue that.

    He was a liability at third and does nothing on the base paths (although with all those homers all he needs to do is jog quite often). Be interesting to poll every GM too see who'd they take for the 2014 season, without their respective contracts factoring in.

    Cabrera is still doing it..... And he's in his prime. And he won the triple crown and he's been the back to back MVP. Trout is good but second.

    And nobody is more clutch, than this man. Trout faded at the end of the season, where Cabrera just kept going. Also 7nth inning or later, just bomb after bomb

    Contract will hamstring the Tigers on the back end. Miggy is the most ridden player in the league. Misused as well. He'll have a few more great seasons then do nothing in October.

    Many people who vote on these awards are conservative old farts ignorant of/hateful towards advanced stats. Check out WAR, wins above replacement. Best player on the planet on top.
