pujols has soriano by nearly .200 points in ops and .40 points in batting average.

what's ridiculous is pujols has only struck out 38 times in 400 at bats. soriano has 121 times in 500 at bats.

Yeah but Pujols was out for a little while, plus Soriano has done everything w/ little to no protection, and he steals bases. Although I certainly wouldn't deem Pujols unworthy.

You don't even know what league Pujols is in. I'm not trusting your judgment.
The Mets manager is Willie Randolph, he was an AllStar when you were in diapers.

I wanna say Ethier for ROY, but I think there are a couple rooks out there having better years. isnt there a pitcher for the Marlins whos been great this yr? I dont think a Dodger will win it in 06, maybe next year or 2008. LaRoche or Kemp or Scott Elbert.....

josh johnson is the marlins pitcher. he leads mlb in era.

he's been lights out, but he only has roughly 135 innings of work as compared to normal starters who have 170-180 right now.

How about David Ortiz for AL MVP, and Paplebon for AL Rookie of the Year.
