Olney Endorses Verlander For MVP

[RipCity32]

Curtis has what Bautista and A-Gon don't though, speed. Pretty hard to argue with 45 homers and 30 SBs while leading the majors in runs by a long shot and potentially leading the majors in RBIs and HRs.

Good point, I didn't see he had 24 SBs.

Can't go wrong with Adrian Gonzalez, Jose Bautista, and Curtis Granderson. Me personally, right now I'd have to give it to Granderson.

Who wins the NL MVP? Justin Upton? Prince and Braun probably cancel each other out.

Kemp should, but I think Braun wins it

Bautista's numbers are so far ahead of everyone, he's clearly MVP

just because they're in a division with the Yanks and Sox doesnt mean they're mediocre
they're contending in every other division

but where a team places should have no effect on who wins MVP
that is so absurd. i hate that argument

Agreed 100%. Although I think Agon or Grandy will get it just because they're gonna make the playoffs.

Adrian Gonzalez has what Jose and Curtis dont, excellent defense. With only 3 errors committed and a .997 fielding percentage is 2nd to only Casey Kotchman among 1st baseman.

He also has a bigger range factor per game at 8.85 to Joses 2.25.

As per fan graphs, Adrians fielding is 7.9 and Joses is -2.0.

Well in their defense, outfield is much harder to play than 1st base
