LittleHurt05 Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 Ryan Braun is my favorite hitter, but I think his defensive inabilities prevent him from being considered the best player in baseball. I would still vote for Pujols as the best player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dude has had a ridiculous season...power, speed, and average.See my previous statement, you gotta do it more than 1 year. He had a .760 OPS last year and his defense was so bad the owners took time to complain about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
witesoxfan Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Sep 21, 2011 -> 07:59 AM) So do I. That's the kind of contract that if it busts will screw that franchise up for a decade. ARod as a Texas Rangers creditor 10 years later style screwup. Perhaps. Or perhaps they actually win and people come out to support. That team is close as is...can you imagine them adding another 5-6 WAR player on top of that? All they'd need is for that pitching staff to improve just a bit more and they'd be there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But they also would need nothing else to go wrong. Fielder to remain a 5-6 WAR player instead of the 3.4 WAR player he was last year or the 1.7 WAR player he was in 2008. Bautista to continue to be one of, if not the, best players in MLB. Lawrie to not turn into Beckham. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
