Did DLee get robbed?

 

Yes.

I would say he got robbed, but then I noticed it was another fan voting poll. Fans are stupid, you can't expect proper distribution of this type of award.

"Best offensive performers of their respective leagues" is the definition of the Hank Aaron Award.

 

Let's see.....

 

Lee had twice as many doubles as Jones. Of the very few categories that Jones made the top 5 in offensive categories (25 total), Jones made the list 5 times, twice finishing first (HR's and RBI's) and 5th (SLG and XBH's), then a 4th in total bases.

 

Lee on the other hand made the top 5 list in 15 different offensive categories, and placed 1st in 9 of those. (AVG, SLG, OPS, hits, total bases, doubles, OPS+, runs created and XBH's).

 

Lee stole 10 more bases than Jones and even equaled Jones in triples.

 

It's not even close. Pujols should have finished runner up.

I hope Papi buys a new couch with his prize money.

:) That took me a sec, but nice.

 

Can anyone round up some info on a correlation between Hank Aaron winners and MVP winners?

D Lee was robbed.

Geez. Lee should get something. A GG maybe.

 

But then again, maybe it's better this way. He won't be quite as expensive.

[Roast]

Lee just got hosed.
