Yep. It’s actually true.
Now, I understand that MVP votes and awards are all opinion-based, and that will mean a good variety of disagreement between the fans and baseball writers. Maybe my homerism tells me that Jose Bautista wasn’t just the most valuable player for the Blue Jays, but the American League in general, but…I can totally understand why most of the votes went to Tigers pitcher Justin Verlander. Honestly. Not a problem with it at all.
I will even give an honest effort to listen to the reasoning behind why Bautista finished 3rd behind Jacoby Ellsbury. I might dislike the player, and I’ll probably staunchly disagree, but I will listen. It’s the Canadian thing to do.
This, though, is beyond my comprehension. I’ll give credit to Evan Grant, the voter here – he voted Michael Young first place, above all other players in the AL, so if anything, at least he’s taken this thing to the highest level. I’m trying to think of some...
