Yeah, Moyer said after the game today that since he isn't a K artist and doesn't rack up complete games he wouldn't be in the running for Cy Young and thought Halladay would win it.
NY Times is doing a real campaign for Posada to be named AL MVP, citing his .281 average, 30 HR's, 101 RBI's, a .402 OBP and a .513 slugging percentage. It'd be nice to see a catcher win it.
They feel as though ARod's shortcomings are specifically in May and June, where the Rangers lost 20 of 22 and during that time he had only 3 HR's and 7 RBI's and was 4-29 with runners in scoring position. Delgado is being touted by Toronto, but if Vernon Wells is the MVP of the team how can Delgado win the award? The Twins are understandbly pushing Shannon Stewart, but I think their pitching coming around in the 2nd half has as much to do with their success as Stewart does. The A's think Keith Foulke deserves serious consideration and KC is pushing for Beltran to get some votes.
The more I think about it, I'd love for Posada to get it.
