I was gonna post that Uggla deserves it more than Hanley but I looked at his OPS and I have to agree with you. Ramirez is better though I suppose someone could argue that the homers out weigh the OBP, maybe? Which position is more demanding, 2b or SS. I LOVE THE stats you used did you get them from ESPN>
ON mauer. it would be so incredibly retarded if jeter won it. THough i have wondered if MVP is more about best stats, (maybe then also including value at a position) or if its more about most valuable. What I mean is like one could argue that Jeter means so much to his team or Thomas. have you seen Mauer live before? He's amazing to watch, to watch him at the plate is an experience like remember what we agreed about about peter he's like that except obviously on a totally different level-level. I don't know if I agree that he should win the MVP. But then I looked at his slugging which is obviously pretty good for a backstop, his OBP is only 80 points better than his average-I dont know...
I have to think about this more honestly
Liriano... . . . . .
the battle between webb and carpenter is tough for me. YOu probably know that I favor carpenter, (because he's been such a force for me in fantasy that has left me go uncheck, he's kinda been my boy) but as you know i have also lost a lot of love for the cardinals, I'm really starting to favor more scrappy teams that still embody something of what I love (cleveland) although i do fear I am losing my principles although it really doesn't seem like the cards embody that anymore either, maybe its just how successful Pujols has been and how he's actaully been reconized, I don't really know. Also with the NL CY young race I fear Hoffman. I think I want Webb to win it though carpenters era is only .2 worse and his whip is better though webb put in more innings but carpenter got more Ks, if they give it to webb because of his wins alone that would be retarted, their offensive isn't that bad in snake land.
here's to hoping for howard, to bad the missed the play offs.

Shortstop is the second most demanding position, second is third most. All the stats were from ESPN. I've been hearing a lot of Oswalt buzz, which is good... and I agree, I hate that because no NL pitcher won more than 16 games they're going to go for a closer who pitched 63 innings and wasn't even that dominant. He blew like five saves? I just don't think a reliever should win it with less than 80. But the W-L thing is absolutely ridiculous. You have guys with dominant K/BB ratio, but only 16 wins, and that makes them undeserving? By the way, you should check out this Page 2 playoff diary on ESPN, by this guy Bill Simmons. It's wicked funny and he just makes fun of Joe Buck and Tim McCarver for being retarded Yankee-loving assholes. He also makes a lot of good points.

I watched the last inning of the tigers/yankees game and all they would do was rave about jeter and talk about how he should get the MVP. FOX is so biased in general i feel like, after he hit that homerun(I could of hit that pitch for a homerun serious it was such a fat curveball just hanging their it made me feel like walker did it intentionally-also the way he walked off the field made me feel like that) all the camera did was so the corwd cheer, cheer, cheer for jeter. THe guys got a great OPS for a SS but hell.
