Kemp got [expletive] hosed.

[UMFan83]

Wow....wasn't paying attention. I thought it was Kemps to lose?

 

Edit: Hell yeah! One voter thought Starlin was the 10th most valuable player in the NL this year!

EVERYONE WHO HAD KEMP 3RD SHOULD BE FUCKED IN THEIR FACES

One voter had Fielder first, Braun second and Kemp 3rd.

"Most Valuable Player From A Playoff Team" award strikes again.

[Formerly Snayke]

Who are the 10 dumbasses that put Ryan Howard and his 2.5 WAR on the ballot?

Those would be the "Most familiar player on the best team who isn't a pticher" ballots.

Who are the 32 people who get to vote on these awards?

[SouthSideRyan]

Who are the 32 people who get to vote on these awards?

 

2 voters for each team, rotates every year.

[Schwarber Fan]

I think Braun was the right choice.

So only NL team reps can vote on NL awards? Are these players or front office types?

I've always said that they should have 2 awards - Player of the Year (from any team) and MVP (from playoff team). Obviously one player could win both.

As do I.

Media.

[El Duderino]

I really don't have a problem with Braun winning. Now, the people that had Kemp third should die a fire.

[mookie]

This is why Kemp is gunning for 50/50 next year. Braun was extremely deserving of this award.

[Theo]

As do I.

Well, you are both wrong.

Don't they?

 

Isn't the Hank Aaron award for the best offensive player?

 

MVP isn't for specifically for someone from a playoff team but still. And I'm firmly in the camp that they don't have to be the same player.

[ELCABALLO45]

Braun was the best hitter in the NL. He deserved it.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Braun was the best hitter in the NL. He deserved it.

 

He wasn't and he didn't.

.324/.399/.586/.986

 

.332/.397/.597/.994

 

Are we really splitting hairs over a couple of points of OBP or OPS? They were both great this year

Yep, no difference between Dodger Stadium and Miller Park. Their defense was very similar too
