The only problem(and I'm not picking on Yankee/Jeter fans; this is simply continuing your example) is in saying that Jeter is the MVP of the league, on the basis that...well, you watched him. It's not like you watched most of, or even half of the games every other player in the AL played. Even those who watch a lot of baseball only get to see certain players in small, inconsecutive pockets.




though i do think, based solely on what i can see (through whatever outlets i have available to me) he's still top choice... i'll admit, there's a shit load of players i've never seen play.

whoakay then. more specifically, i'd say he's almost always been the mvp of the yankees, despite other yankees winning, or being in the running for, the actual league award.

Are you saying that the difference between Bernie's intangibles and Sheffield/Matsui's intangibles is going to overcome the large difference in their onfield production?




i'm saying that, currently, the yankees are a near-dominating first place team, playing exceptionally well. they're constantly flirting with a season-high record, and many things about them are "clicking" to a fantastic degree.

to me, any change, even one that later pans out to be "for the better," will disrupt the flow of a currently great team.
