Saintsfan Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 Personally, given the turnaround in the Yankees I think its hard to look beyond Girardi for MOY, though I appreciate the Yankees are easier to turn around than a lot of teams. And whilst Sciosia has done a good job this year at the Angels, especially in the circumstances, they, as you mention, have been division champs for 3 years now. So its a close call, but personally its Girardi for me.One other slight gripe, I find this turn of phrase If you do not think Albert Pujols is the Most Valuable Player in the National League, you do not have any credibility.A bit hard to swallow. I'm not saying Pujols shouldn't be MVP, but I think accusing someone who disagrees with your views, posted on an amateur website, as 'lacking credibility' is a bit rich. 2011/12 WFL Champions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

epper Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 I agree with all of them, except Porcello. Andrew Bailey (6-3, 1.84 ERA, 26 for 30 in Saves, 91 K's in 83 IP) should be the AL RoY.I would actually put Gordon Beckham 2nd and Porcello 3rd.

mania Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 A 1.7 WAR wins rookie of the year? C'mon, Tnak.ERA, K, W, Saves, Walks, WHIP Those are real stats, WAR is what is going on in Afghanistan.You never fail me, Tnak. Never.Alright, let's do some stat comparisons here.ERA(which is NOT a good stat, but since it's one of the ones you picked): 4.06 - 4.04IP: 175 - 165K: 150 - 81Walks: 45 - 50WHIP: 1.283 - 1.345K/9: 7.7 - 4.4K/BB: 3.3 - 1.62FIP: 3.69 - 4.81The difference? One player plays on a bad team, therefore went 11-11. The other player plays on a good team, and went 14-9.I'm actually almost surprised that you even acknowledged WHIP. Almost seems like it would be too "sabermetrics" for the all might Tnak. Off The Top Rope: A Pro Wrestling Podcast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
