    You'd think if Wells was that bad they'd already have the book on him. He's pitched almost the whole season in the majors and had pretty consistent success. 1.48 WHIP since the ASB

    he's also 36, declining, and has a huge contract. the enormous drop in k's this season is pretty telling also. as for the "stays healthy, eats a lot of innings and gets a lot of ground balls", well, you don't pay 15 million a year for that for a guy under contract until age 39. you could say those same things about crappy pitchers anyways, like jason marquis. either way, i don't see how you can possible make the argument that he's "really good" when you consider his age and the season he's having. he'd have to bounce back in a huge way next season for that, and at age 36 he's much more likely to continue this decline than turn it around.

    Oh god no. Lowe sucks and has an awful contract Derek Lowe is very good. i don't see how you think that. he's been terrible this season. 4.55 ERA, 1.48 WHIP, 217 hits in 184 innings, etc. his k's have also plummeted since he went to atlanta. he has been awful this year and his numbers away from dodger stadium werent that good over his last 3 seasons in la (WHIPs of 1.38, 1.31, and 1.34 away from dodger stadium from 06-08) oh, and he's also 36 years old. how is he really good?

    how can you be upset about that play? it wasnt as bad as i thought initially. still though he jumped way too early for some reason
  13. 17 Seconds
    that would have been a pick if he didn't jump way too early
  14. 17 Seconds

  20. 17 Seconds
    joke team, joke coaching staff
  21. 17 Seconds
    this team just isn't that good
  22. 17 Seconds
    it certainly helped them on their deep playoff run to the world series. oh wait... how many $10 million talent, $.10 head guys help teams win on average? i'll bet that number isn't very high. wow

    So because other people do it, it's okay? Just about anyone that claims that there isn't favoritism in any organization is lying to you. I know.

    Awesome so they will steal both the MVP and Cy Young then from deserving players from the Central. Why not just rewrite the rules to best Yankee-RedSox? Yeah it's frustrating, but all you got to look to is Pedroia winning MVP last year. From here on out the award of MVP has diminished value to me. Who should win MVP from the central? Cabrera? Oh and just watching ESPN and what not, it looks like there is a push for Jeter to win a GG this year :shock: Miguel Cabrera, maybe a interesting choice for the MVP. However if the Twins finish there sneak attack on the Tigers then I feel that Joe Mauer should be the MVP. How does Mauer become more valuable if the Twins win the division? His value is exactly the same no matter where his team finishes.
