Heyman Picks Granderson, Braun As MVPs

[Big Bid'Ness]

From:realgm

Sports Illustrated writer Jon Heyman has picked New York's Curtis Granderson and Milwaukee's Ryan Braun as his Most Valuable Players for the 2011 season.

"He has been a run-generating machine, whether he's batting second or third in the star-studded Yankees lineup," Heyman writes.

"He leads the majors in runs by a wide margin (he has scored 26 more times than Jacoby Ellsbury, who's second), and also leads the majors in home runs and RBIs, and the speedster's slugging percentage is higher than anyone but [Jose] Bautista. He also has turned himself into a major threat against left-handers."

About Braun, Heyman added:

"Terrific all-around players gets slight nod over teammate Prince Fielder. His .999 OPS is tops in the NL," he wrote.

Bautista is the AL MVP. However, Granderson should be right behind him.

Or he's of the belief that guys on shitty teams shouldn't be named MVP?

i said i was ok with him saying Braun
i may disagree, but having Prince 2nd is stupid

team success shouldnt matter

not Tulo or Votto's fault the Brewers have a great pitching staff
not Kemp's fault he's the only guy on his team who can hit(Aaron Miles until last week was batting 5th on days Juan Rivera didnt)
