[Hammerin Hank]

Stats updated June 19

This is for both leagues. I've allowed for multiple decisions to make it easier for you. And I'm sorry for not including pitchers but I got too lazy. Perhaps a best pitcher poll will soon appear. So who's been the MVP so far this season:


Garrett Anderson - 63 rbi
Carlos Beltran - 18 sb
Hank Blalock - .341
Barry Bonds - .674 slg
Carlos Delgado - 22 hr, 76 rbi, 62 runs, .659 slg
Adam Dunn - 22 hr
Jim Edmonds - .652 slg
Rafael Furcal - 62 runs, 8 3b
Nomar Garciaparra - 60 runs, 97 hits, 12 3b
Marcus Giles - 24 2b
Christian Guzman - 9 3b
Todd Helton - 59 runs
Aubrey Huff - 25 2b
Mike Lowell - 21 hr
Melvin Mora - .358
Bill Mueller - 25 2b

Carlos Delgado - 22 hr, 76 rbi, 60 runs, .663 slg

Definetly Delgado. His stats alone are good enough for MVP, but don't forget the Jay's are in a 3-way race for the east.

[Hammerin Hank]

That's nothin. We've got a four team race going on in the NL central.

[The Dude]

Yes we do, but since the Crew isn't doing anything, I'd rather vote for someone out of the NLC.

[insanefishpossay]

AL: Delgado. Earlier this season I would have said Alfonso, but since then Delgado's been way better than Soriano.

NL: Gary Sheffield or Albert Pujols. Both these guys have great stats, I dont follow the NL as much, so there might be something I dont know :P

Being a twins fan, I'm curious as to why Christian Guzman is on this list. He shouldn't be. Yes, he has 9 triples, but he's hitting .268, no homeruns, and has been caught stealing(4) more times than he has actually stolen a base(3).
If there's a candidate for MVP from the twins(which right now there really isn't) it would be Jaque Jones. He's batting .307 with 8 homers.

[Hammerin Hank]

I didn't spend alo of time making the list. I just looked at the leader boards and figured that everyone who should be voted for are on those lists.

As much as I'd LOVE to say nomar or manny, I too have to go with delgado. he's by FAR leading in RBI's and tied for first in the majors with home runs. not to mention a rather decent avgerage and increadible slugging percentage.

To think... I was thinking earlier in the season about how over paid he was

[rudy]

and to think....i wanted to trade him to the BoSox!!!!!

VT talked me out of it though in my forum!

[Steffo]

To think, I thought he would be second in mvp voting this year, how stupid I am.

It's gotta be Shefferz and Cuh-Cuh-Cuh-ARLLLLLLLL-ohz Daaaaaaal-GAH-DOE.


Just imitating a radio broadcaster whose name I forgot.

[Jose Tartabul]

If the season ended today, it would have to be hands down Delgato in the AL. I can't think of anyone even close. Of course, he may fade in the stretch, but he sure is have a career MVP year so far

[brewcrew82]

Delgado would be the AL MVP...

[Appling]

Based on the Hank Aaron Award point system, the leaders would be Carlos Delgado in the AL and Gary Sheffield in the NL.

[Hammerin Hank]

I don't think that Albert Pujols is getting nearly enough support on this poll. In fact, I think he has passed Delgado for me and he's got my vote now.

[Appling]

Based on HAA points thru June 17, Pujols is leading the NL and Delgado leads the American League. Pretty credible indicator!

Hank Aaron Award Points thru June 17:

American League
Carlos Delgado 178; Vernon Wells 168; Garret Anderson 161

National League:
Albert Pujols 162; Mike Lowell 161; Gary Sheffield 156
