Only a 8th place finish in the AL MVP voting for Ben Zobrist despite being the best positional player in the American League statistically (if you believe in WAR). Zobrist made huge leaps in his plate discipline this season, walking .88 times for every strikeout which is among the leaders in the Majors. Walks isn’t [...]

Where's the outrage? So many sportswriters got their panties in a bunch over Keith Law leaving Carpenter off his ballot, what about Ben Zobrist on the MVP ballot? I'm glad Joe Mauer won and would have voted for him, but Zobrist was clearly the second best position player in baseball this year, yet he was left off 17 ballots and his highest vote was 6th. The top three in AL MVP should have been Mauer,...

Joe Mauer started his season on the DL and ended it as the American League Most Valuable Player . There really was no other choice, as Mauer got 27 of the 28 first-place votes. It seems one of the BWAA members must be related to Miguel Cabrera, as that's the only way you can make a case that Cabrera should get the other first-place vote. Mauer hit .365 with 94 runs, 96 RBI and a 1.031 OPS while playing...

At Baseball Daily Digest, I give some props to Ben Zobrist of the Tampa Bay Rays, who did not receive one vote higher than sixth place. Zobrist was just as good a hitter as Cabrera as evidenced by his .408 wOBA. He was a supremely good fielder at two positions (30.8 UZR/150 at second base; 40.2 [...]

Congrats to the much-deserving Joe Mauer . Miguel Cabrera received a first place vote, Ben Zobrist did not finish above sixth on any ballot. Zobrist: played meaningful defensive position, hit .297/.405/.543 with 27 home runs. Cabrera: plays first base, hit .324/.396/.547 with 34 home runs. Full results here . That's really all I care to write about this.

The AL MVP award will be announced today, which means Ben Zobrist is about to become the latest and maybe most controversial name in the fight between those that believe stats are the end-all, be-all and those that think Sabermetrics is synonymous with Satan. According to Wins Above Replacement (WAR), Zobrist was the most valuable player [...]

by Jim Prisching - AP I know the Spiderman joke doesn't entirely make sense other than my insistence on saying Kapler plays the field like a spider on acid ... but his arms here seem to support my theory on Kapler's arachnid nature.

More photos » by Reinhold Matay - AP Browse more photos » On Monday afternoon, I fully expect Joe Mauer to win his first MVP award after finishing sixth in 2006 and fourth last year. Joe led the AL in batting average while hitting for respectable power (28 HRs) in only 138 games, most of which were as a catcher. He led the Twins into the postseason after they trailed by three games with...
