5 homers is too much for him to make up against Pujols,

He's been on fire as of late. Playing a lot in coors field helps a lot too.

i dont care how hot he is, 5 HR is a lot for a month

but he does have more home games in september than road games, so he has an outside chance

seriously, his home/road splits are really drastic

ok im done slighting Cargo

.340 leads
100 rbi leafs
32 HR is 3 behind

wow, what a season. no one on earth thought he'd be this good. wow.
especially since he was their leadoff hitter until Helton got hurt/struggled. then he was hot, so Tracy put him 3rd when Tulo also got hurt and BOOM

can you imagine Adrian at Coors, with that line-up around him?

You can't say best... Because CarGo runs and plays great defense (well, Adrian plays D too) But CarGo has been the best player in the league this season, and the division too.

Adrian doesnt have nearly the line-up or park Cargo has. shoot, he plays in the polar opposite of Coors

Cargo is sure on his way if he keeps doing this, but right now Adrian is still the best in the division

BUT, if i had to pick 1, i'd take Cargo. younger, more speed like you mentioned, and he plays a plus outfield. he could win a GG in all 3 positions. well i guess GG just picks 3 OF's, but you get what im saying.
I'll even ignore his home/road splits :)

actually, if i was able, i might take Tulo over both

CarGo is an animal. I've loved this guy since his A's days. He's one of the best, if not the best, 5-tool player in the MLB.

Didn't you say Tulo sucks earlier in the year?

If Adrian Gonzalez was playing on a team like the Rockies or the Braves he would be the National Leagues MVP without a doubt.
