Bored 0 Report post Posted November 7, 2005 Street was great but personally I thought the ROY was Joe Blanton. Lack of run support killed is win/loss record. A.L. 1. Huston Street, (15) 97 2. Robinson Cano, (4) 57 3. Jonny Gomes, (2) 39 4. Tadahito Iguchi, (5) 30 5. Gustavo Chacin, (2) 14 6t. Nick Swisher, 6 6t. Joe Blanton, 6 8. Jesse Crain, 2 9. Scott Kazmir, 1 N.L. 1. Ryan Howard, (19) 109 2. Willy Taveras, (7) 78 3. Jeff Francoeur, (2) 60 4. Garrett Atkins, (1) 17 5. Zach Duke, (3) 16 6t. Jeff Francis, 3 6t. Rickie Weeks, 3 8t. Clint Barmes, 1 8t.

Precious Roy 0 Report post Posted November 8, 2005 I'd say the top 3 in each league was pretty spot on. I liked Gomes and Cano better than Street, but no argument on him winning. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

USC Wuz Robbed! 0 Report post Posted November 8, 2005 I could have easily said Iguchi got screwed but I don't think he deserved it after his postseason performance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EVIL~! alkeiper 0 Report post Posted November 8, 2005 Voting is done before the postseason, so Iguchi's postseason performance doesn't matter. It's not like the White Sox lost, it's a small sample, and a good portion of Iguchi's value lies in his defense. That the White Sox were such a good defensive team is a big point in Iguchi's favor. I hope the voters didn't penalize him due to his status as a Japanese veteran. Regardless of what you think the eligibility rules are, Iguchi was eligible this year. I can't really argue with Huston Street though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Precious Roy 0 Report post Posted November 8, 2005 Gomes should have finished before Cano but it doesn't matter. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> yeah probably, I would have voted Gomes first place personally, but like you said, it doesn't matter If Gomes can keep up his production though...look out!

USC Wuz Robbed! 0 Report post Posted November 8, 2005 Ah yeah well Iguchi wasn't that hot in the regular season either. He has good defense but that's it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
