He'll definitely get consideration. Ryan Braun may end up with it though. Ryan Braun does not deserve the MVP. He's basically putting up Soriano numbers (no walks). A lot of guys are outproducing Braun. MVP isnt the best player, its the most valuable to his team. Take Braun out of the Brewers lineup, and you basically have the Reds or Astros. That's not fair. So a guy like Pat Burrell, who is outproducing Braun, shouldn't win because he happens to play for a better lineup? Anyways Puljols is way more valuable to his team than Braun. The MVP should be for the best player. Braun isn't even in the top 5 right now. Wow, I didnt realise how good Pat the Bat was doing. At least hes not just killing us anymore. The basis of the award is supposed to be the most valuable player to his team, but thats not how its always given out. Is it the most valuable to his team, or the most valuable in general? I don't think that the team a guy plays for should impact his chances at the MVP.
