I think, even though your preference is understood, you make a good point on who was more valuable as far as the offensive side of things.  Ortiz probably had more to do with wins with his bat than A-rod.  BUt this has turned into a numbers game, and A-rods numbers were better, and he plays btoh sides of the ball which gives him an advantage.  But a DH can win it.  Frank has 2 (3) MVP's.

 

Thomas was the 1Bman for the '93 and '94 teams. He played 150 games at 1B in '93, and 99 games at 1B in 1994. It was George Bell and Julio Franco who largely DH'ed for the Sox during those years.

 

In 2000, he did DH...but he again, came up short. A very similar situation to the ARod-Ortiz debacle this year, actually.

IN 2000 he won though. Giambi cheated, so he really doesnt count.

just as predictable as it was for you to make up an excuse of why Ortiz and Rodriguez were in the running to begin with.  :huh

 

Oh hell. That was a "tongue in cheek" type remark. In fact, in a later post I agreed with someone that it didn't really make any sense. Get. Real.

it's hard to have a sense of humor with you when everything you say in my regards is negative.

 

Predicting you would prefer Ortiz to win the MVP over ARod is not negative. It's common f***ing sense. You are Red Sox fan and Ortiz is Red Sox. Dude, you are thin skinned if you think I'm picking on you.
