Stanton and Altuve named 2017 AL & NL MVP

[BuckFoston]

I'm fine with Altuve winning the award but the landslide in which he won is what bugs me about this whole situation. Lame.

meh, judge disappeared in july and august. altuve was the only choice. and in 5 years... hell, by next year... no one remembers how much a guy won or lost the mvp by, just that they won or lost. judge finished 2nd, which is where he shouldve finished.

if anything, the nl is probably the one we should debate... but since stanton wouldve been my vote, i dont have a debate to make. but goldschmidt, votto and arenado all had cases. hell, jd martinez couldve gotten some votes, with the ridiculous couple months he had for arizona.

I loved how the votes turned out. The AL was straightforward with only a few outliers for JoRam and the NL was wonderfully chaotic. Reading the BWAA votes caused my brain to ooze out for the NL. In a good way. The idea Stanton and Votto were 1, 2 was great
