2012 MLB Mid season award winners
Most of the Teams have completed 81 games.
At the halfway point who gets your vote for the leagues top honors? My Picks MVP AL : Josh Hamilton NL : Joey Votto Cy Young AL: David Price NL: RA Dickey Rookie of the year AL: Mike Trout NL: Bryce Harper I went with Hamilton over Miguel Cabrera because, as usual Cabrera has done it so quietly. I would really like to see the Tigers surge and Cabrera win it, but to do that, they are going to need another bat. If in the end Votto wins, he should thank Matt Kemp's hamstring in his acceptance speech. I went with Price because he's 11-4 on a team that doesn't hit. His SO and ERA are right up there with the rest of the leaders. Who are your choices?

"If in the end Votto wins, he should thank Matt Kemp's hamstring in his acceptance speech."
So should everybody in our fantasy league.

Re: 2012 MLB Mid season award winners
I'm pretty much with you on all of that Dom, but I'm up in the air on a couple.
I'm not sure if he qualifies, but if he does Yu Darvish has to be AL ROY. And not to be a complete homer but I think if the Mets end up in the playoffs and he keeps playing the way he is, David Wright is the NL MVP, and Cano has to be right up there for AL MVP.

It doesn't hurt that he's leading the AL in Avg. either.

Re: 2012 MLB Mid season award winners
Trout has been awesome - I think Darvish has too. Its a toss up, but considering that Trout is truly a rookie, I'm changing my vote and going with him.
AL ROY - Mike Trout NL ROY - Bryce Harper NL CY - R.A. Dickey AL CY - David Price NL MVP - David Wright Al MVP - Robinson Cano

Re: 2012 MLB Mid season award winners
MVP
AL : Robinson Cano NL : David Wright Cy Young AL: Chris Sale NL: RA Dickey Rookie of the year AL: Mike Trout NL: Bryce Harper Trout and Harper are no brainers. Although Darvish has had a good year, the Rangers score tons for him and the White Sox are hit and miss. Without Wright and Dickey...the Mets are in the cellar. Me voting for a Yankee?? WTF???

Re: 2012 MLB Mid season award winners
Nieuwnhuis isn't gtting a chance to play everyday and Harper is. Though his numbers far exceed those of Andres Torres, he still has to fight for innings. Makes me wonder what the hell Collins is thinking.

Mac, as a Tigers fan it pains me to agree with you about Sale for the mid-season Cy Young...but I do agree with you.

Re: 2012 MLB Mid season award winners
I wanted to bring this to the top.
I keep hearing growing support for Mike Trout for AL MVP. I cant for the life of me fathom how anybody would vote for him over Miguel Cabrera. 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?

Re: 2012 MLB Mid season award winners
Not making a case against Miggy. But, what Mike Trout has done for the Angels, I can see why he is being mentioned. He has slowed down and Miggy has stepped up in the last few weeks. I think Miggy will win it and probably deserves it.
Adrian Beltre should get a mention, though. Miggy can hit, but can't hold Beltre's jock at 3rd.

Re: 2012 MLB Mid season award winners
Trout is an awesome player, and will be for many years. He is an easy ROTY choice. But Cabrera is MVP, anything else would be a a mistake.

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.

Re: 2012 MLB Mid season award winners
Miggy gets my vote...hands down. 1HR shy of the Triple Crown...no brainer!! he started out the season kind of slow...but since the All Star break he has been on fire. Not a more feared hitter in the league IMHO.
