Miguel Cabrera wins AL MVP!
22 of 28 1st place votes.
Before the flaming begins, AL ROTY Mike Trout had an amazing season as well and is one helluva ball player. But this thread pays homage to two ballplayers who both deserve recognition today: 2012 AL MVP Miguel MIGGY Cabrera! And a special mention for Prince Fielder, who last season provided "protection" for NL MVP Ryan Braun by batting behind him, and this season did the same for Cabrera....they both owe a big part of their success to the Prince!

Re: Miguel Cabrera wins AL MVP!
Trout is a young guy who will get plenty of other opportunities. Congrats to Miggy! Triple crown and MVP! Too bad he didn't get a ring to go along with that, but it wasn't his time.

Granted, he has a HUGE impact on that club and he's a good ball player, but so is James McDonald and his name sure wasn't thrown up there for Cy Young with the second half he had. Cutch's impact didn't lead the club into anything special. In sports you have to win to be a winner. If he can drag the Bucs into winning their division next year and can gather another Gold Glove, I'd definately support him for MVP. The fact that he didn't even excel in garbage time at the end of the season when other teams weren't particularly motivated speaks volumes in my mind. Congrats to Miggy. What an AMAZING season. We probably saw something that won't be repeated in our lifetime. That's what an MVP does.
