I feel like we need a thread on this.

With Cabrera in position to achieve the first Triple Crown since 1967 (tops in HRs, RBIs and Avg)....does he deserve the MVP over a guy like Trout, who is a rookie whose defensive game easily destroys Miggy's, plus he has fantastic stats....

Thoughts?

I peg Trout as the complete player, Miggy as the better hitter. Even getting really close to a triple crown is very impressive these days, I'm not really sure what to say here...

I'm going to put my money on miggy. Trout has done some amazing things but I think on paper he has a much better team behind him. Plus the fact that he's a shoe in for ROY I think the edge goes to cabrerra who is totally leading his team and the entire mlb offensively.

I think Miggy will win... as voters often expect a player to pay his dues to get respect.

That said, there is no questioning Trout's overall value this year.
His WAR says enough.
I think Trout is MVP of MLB this year.

Trout may not win, but this isn't even a debate.
Trout leads by 3.5 wins in WAR.
People ignore defense and baserunning in MVP vote, and look at glamour stats like hrs/rbis.

Both tremendous players, but if Miggy wins the triple crown this is his award IMO.

Trout is amazing and his play won't go unnoticed, I'm sure he will win a few MVP awards throughout his career.

Both have had huge seasons but if I am the voters I would probably give the award to Miguel....Trout is as deserving but just I guess I just look at it like if two guys are close the veteran gets it. Whether its wrong or right is another thing but right now I'd give it to Miguel.

Miguel hits another homer tonight....his 44th of the year and enough to give him sole possession over the top spot over Josh Hamilton.

WIthout a doubt, it will be Miggy, not Trout.
