cabrera wins AL MVP

[antifoil]

i want to get out in front because i don't understand how math and probabilities work so its cabrera. learning stats to determine value is too hard. i like the bubble i live in that is why i watch fox news.


oh and buster posey won too.

[mynameismud]

thank god its cabrera and its over. im sick of hearing the debates.

[antifoil]

it hasn't been announced yet. i am just getting out in front because i know dick morris was right about the election and nate silver was wrong. something strange happened because using math can't be right compared to what someone thinks.

[Br0nxer]

good if true

no fukkin way Trout should win

Has to go to cabrera

[mynameismud]

i know..its going to be cabrera obv and it will all be over very soon. trout will have 15 years to try to win it.

[antifoil]

i am glad the dick morris' are the ones voting for MVP instead of the nate silvers. if only pundits could pick elections right instead of math nerds.

BREAKING: Miguel Cabrera edges out Mike Trout for AL MVP. Cabrera was 1st Triple Crown winner since Carl Yastrzemski in 1967.

[mynameismud]

buster only talking about it now on espn.

[antifoil]

this is a big win for the guys that like to cap games by "watching the game" thinking it is a good way to being a winning sports bettor.

eat it math nerds.

guys it was a "legitimate" rape. todd adkins will be proud the sports writers had a way of shutting that whole math thing down.

[antifoil]

personally, i voted for cabrera because when i voted i knew there would be no way that if he was up to bat in the 9th with 2 outs the deciding world series game, he would strikeout looking.

the old primitive way of choosing mvps prevails

in the future the sabermetric minded mvp pickers will have lots of laughs and cries at the old timers and the primitive logic they used.

also apparently defense doesn't matter.
quality of competition doesn't matter

sad day for baseball

Who's the fukkin dipshit that gave Ibanez a 10th place vote

That right there discredits the award all together...

Got to give it to Cabrera for the simple fact Trout didn't play first month...

I'd take Trout over Cabrera in a heart beat though...

[iifold]

Nevermind, John Lowe from Detroit Free Press Voted Ibanez 10th

SBR'ers arguing till the cows come home and vote was not even that close.

[antifoil]

this is a big win for drunk drivers everywhere. you can negligently try to kill people and still be a winner.

[Chi_archie]

congrats to Miggy!

angryfoil u mad bro?

Not sure you understood the point. The argument was about who deserved to win, not who would win.

I posted that Cabrera would win, and I said I felt Trout deserved it.

I never thought Trout would win. I know who votes on these awards.

Also, it wasn't about SBR. There are hundreds of threads all over the Internet with long debates on the same subject.

angryfoil u mad bro?

yes. the punishment should be much more severe for drunk driving. when donte stallworth got like 3 months house arrest after he killed someone and people did not demand a chance in the law, i got mad. drunk drivers should get life for killing.

[yisman]

Leonard Little is smirking.

[iifold]

You or the United States of America wouldn't be here without drunks...

Drunks built most of this fukkin place...

Learn some history pal...

[antifoil]

that has nothing to do with driving. you can drink all you want and kill yourself through asphyxiation masturbation at home for all i care.

[nic9212]

glad miggy won it

[face]

miggy won 362 to 281 in votes, landslide

beltre 3rd with 210

[jetsjets1028]

as he shouldve he won triple crown AND his team won the division trout cant say either

[gryfyn1]

Defense and Baserunning are why Trout should have won.

Cabrera was better, though not greatly so at they plate, Yet Trout Dominated in New School, Math Nerd stats like Defense and Baserunning.

[lunchbawks]

Obviously Cabrera won, best hitter to ever walk the earth

[Regul8er]

There was never a debate.....and it seemed like there were 10 Trout supporters for every 1 Cabrera supporter in the threads I posted in.
Thank goodness the right man won here!

[yisman]

There was never a debate

Actually, there was a debate as to who deserved it.

There was no debate as to who would win. The people voting for the award are not very bright.

[BuckeyeKaptn]

No other choice

miggy was due, he could have got it two years ago when hamilton got it, plus he won the triple crown, plus he was THE offense on his team. no way they're giving it to a rookie with all these factors, fuk stats. miggy was due and the old school way does prevail.
