Reply to "Poll - Trout, Cabrera or other for AL MVP"

It is the Most Valuable Player. If it were most valuable hitter, Cabrera wins it easily. So if voters consider defense and baserunning Trout should get some support.

Remember last year the MVP went to a pitcher.

I'm pulling for Trout, but think Cabrera gets the award this year. I do think it will be because of the triple crown. It's been a long time since anyone has done that. It is a rare accomplishment and I think it will sway the voters.

Still, .326, 30 HRs, 49 SB, 129 runs, 83 RBI in the lead off spot. Nearly a .400 OB% as a rookie. Not to mention being a human highlight film in Centerfield. Amazing!
