lolJeter

 

Nice to see Avila there. Great job by the fans.

CC pays the price for Jeter's popularity 1 robbery for 1 snub

 

How about Ryan Vogelson? Bruce Bocey is a joke...

 

Edit: well I guess Vogelson does have nice stats, but I still believe he should have only take 2 of the 3 pitchers he took...now over 1/2 of the NL pitching staff is Giants and Phillies

I like how Paul Konerko hasn't been mentioned in this thread

Miggy and A Gonz, just as and more deserving, Ron Washington brought Michael Young instead, a joke yes but Konerko is used to be snubbed and not talked about

Shane Victorino does not deserve to be the fans vote in

 

Why not?

 

Based on performance, Ian Kennedy should be his only competition, really. Of the four hitters on the ballot, Shane is having the strongest offensive season (well, he and Morse are very close). Not to mention he is easily the best fielder of the group.

 

But of course, in something like this, fan support is the only thing that matters. But he wins in that department too, so it seems like a slam dunk...

 

Not even trying to be a homer here. It just seems pretty obvious to me.

Victorino: .303 AVG, 9 HR, 34 RBI, .376 OBP

Helton: .319 AVG, 9 HR, 39 RBI, .393 OBP

 

Victorino beats Helton in runs and slugging, but that's about it. It's certainly close as there's no clear cut winner, but I feel like Helton certainly deserves to be higher than 3rd on the list

Also extra base hits and stolen bases.

 

And not to get super nerdy on you, but Victorino has a pretty significant edge in WAR.

 

And UZR too, going back to defense.

66 runs produced for Todd Helton with an .881 OPS

80 runs produced for Shane Victorino with a .900 OPS

 

RC and OPS are my 2 favorite stats

 

not to mention Shane plays CF

 

btw I would have picked Aramis, crime he's not on there, having the best year of any 3B in the NL, should be starting...
