Predictions for the rest of the year

[B00T]

Wait 3 more months and I think it will be unanimous that McPherson wins ROY and not Cano.

[Jakesta]

Yeah that fatty McPherson is sooo impressive, not. Cano hits much better. He owns him in batting average and OPS.

Face it. Cano > McPherson.

You are a fool, Vince.

A-Rod has much better stats than Tejada.

Yeah, .328/19/58 is so much better than .321/18/54. Get real

A-Rod > Tejada, and A-Rod will be the AL MVP.

[/ QUOTE ]

If the season ends today, Tejada easily beats A-Rod in MVP voting. And if Baltimore wins the East (or even gets the wild card) and Tejada is near A-Rod in stats, he beats A-Rod.

You are a fool, Vince.

A-Rod has much better stats than Tejada. A-Rod's BA is only like one point lower, but A-Rod has more HR and RBI.

A-Rod > Tejada, and A-Rod will be the AL MVP.

[/ QUOTE ]

Meanwhile, Tejada plays SS while A-Rod pretends to play third base, and Tejada's team leads their division.

Tejada's been better than A-Rod. Roberts has been better than them both. It's close, though.

san diego and philadelphia? yuck. san diego is lucky they are in the worst division in baseball or they prolly wouldnt be mentioned for serious post season consideration. philadelphia isnt going to win the nl east, they always self destruct at the end of the season

I didnt know you could see into the [censored] future Dead #2. Not now, but he has more potential than Cano to be a stud in the MLB.

Wow, didn't even realize Tejada was dominating so much. I change him to my AL MVP.

If Young qualifies as a rookie, I see no way he won't win AL ROY, he is NASTY.

[pudley4]

I'm 99% sure Mauer isn't eligible for ROY.
