And with all seriousness, voters of awards love giving black players awards they don't normally win. That being said, I think he definitely deserves it, but I think a few voters will vote for him just because he is black.

This is a pretty ignorant statement. Try telling it to Dave Stewart.

If I am, it'll have nothing to do with Dontrell's ethnicity.

[/ QUOTE ]I disagree. I said earlier that I think he deserves it, just based on how he has pitched, but I think race(subconsciously atleast) will be a factor.

Obviously you haven't looked at the AL MVP race. You don't think race is involved in Rodriguez and Ortiz being in first place?
