As it stands, Miggy is 1 homer shy of a triple crown!
There hasn't been a triple crown winner in 40+ years!
Am I that far off base?
Where is everyone else on this issue?
Triple Crown = MVP imo. Only time a triple crown winner didn't get the MVP was Joe D. beating out Ted Williams with a 56 game hitting streak.

Trout has been better than advertised, and phenomenal. Any other year I'd say go for it, but Miggy is the MVP if he wins the triple crown, or comes real close.
