Cabrera's MVP Vote: Of course! We forgot about the WBC!
Belatedly, Voter Explains Why He Chose Cabrera Over Mauer for M.V.P. - Bats Blog - NYTimes.com

I guess I don't think winning the award unanimously is THAT much better than winning it almost unanimously, but it is interesting to read Konishi's reasoning. I love how he makes it a cultural thing to include the WBC as a criteria for MLB MVP (as opposed to merely being utterly irrelevant). Ah well, for what it's worth, maybe Joe can get it unanimously this year!

Mauer is a slacker.
He only played in 138 games! We all know the MVP is the one who plays in the most games. And Cabrera played 160.
The choice is clear.
Wait… I think he messed up. Because Brandon Inge actually played in 161 games! Recount! Brandon Inge is your MVP!
Morneau played
in all 163 games last season (2008)! Lets recount that MVP vote! Morneau = 2x MVP!!!!

Well...
The guy’s still kind of an idiot, but at least he’s an idiot with a mostly-coherent thought process, I guess.
