tdawg87 24,617 Posted November 13 I think Bregman gets it, but it will be incredibly close. My argument for Trout though, is him missing the final 20 some-odd games of the season had no impact on the Angels. So even if he had played those games, the Angels still miss the playoffs by a lot. Same goes for Bregman. Him NOT missing the final 20 games had no impact on the Astros. They were winning the division regardless. 2 1 2 VariousCrap, Calzone 2, Taylor and 2 others reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Troll Daddy 5,090 Posted November 13 I think the fact that Bregman played shortstop during Correa’s absence might be a deciding factor in his favor. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chuckster70 16,921 Posted November 13 Too bad they didn't vote until after the postseason. Trout easily wins IMO. 1 John Taylor reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Blarg 26,003 Posted November 13 I'm hoping the BBWA is rethinking if they should void the ballots and start over now that it is known Huston and Bregman in particular, cheated the entire season and Bregman's offensive stat line is a big ass lie. 2 Vladdylonglegs and JarsOfClay reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sean-Regan 994 Posted November 13 It would be ironic if Bregman won considering the news that just came out. Guarantee if that story came out pre-voting it would’ve cost him votes. 2 Chuckster70 and Angel Oracle reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JustATroutFan 624 Posted November 13 Wouldn’t even be a discussion had Trout got to face the Angels starting rotation and Bregman face the Astros starting rotation. 2 Mark PT and Angel Oracle reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guarantee if that story came out pre-voting it would’ve cost him votes. This too. 81 games at the very least at home that he got a bang bang when s certain pitch was coming. Same for all those ASStros. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the dude abides 3,090 Posted November 14 Sadly, I think it’ll be Bregman* Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ScottT 1,982 Posted November 14 I think Trout will win. Most writers and other media members pick Trout, from what I've seen. I'd guess around 2/3, maybe more. Funny things happen with small sample sizes though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bronson 206 Posted November 14 Trout got robbed of MVP awards his first two seasons so he deserves this one just out of principle to balance it all out. 1 Taylor reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ScottT 1,982 Posted November 14 Then, I run across this one... USA Today has 5 votes for Bregman, 2 for Trout. Yahoo: Trout 3, Bregman 0. Plus a mystery pick from an actual voter. CBS: Trout 5, Bregman 0 Trout: NY Times, MassLive, TheRinger. Bleacher Report, Sporting News, Bregman: NY Daily News (doofus didnt put Trout in top 3), Newsweek Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ScottT 1,982 Posted November 14 MLB.com, with a week to go in the regular season had it: Trout 36, Bregman 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Between all that, unless he just gets an unlucky sampling, I think he wins. He deserves to, for sure. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

floplag 2,821 Posted November 14 I believe the pundits are done giving Trout a pass on bad teams. I hope i'm wrong but i think its Bregman even though it should be Trout on merit but the whole team is his albatross here. 1 Taylor reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
