The Basball Writers Association has spoken. In their opinion, Robbie Cano is only the third most valuable player in the American League.
I’m still trying to decipher why Robbie only finished third – and a distant third, at that. Hamilton (.359, 32, 100) and Cabrera (.328, 38,126) both had great individual seasons. But apparently, the BBWAA forgot the meaning of “valuable.”
Otherwise, how does a player whose team finished 13 games out of first place finish second?
How does a player who missed almost the entire month of September finish first?
And how does Jose Bautista, whose team finished in fourth, get a first-place vote but Robbie Cano doesn’t get any?
