I'm guessing this one set the world record.
Uh.....what? How does this make any sense in any way? Ysing the ridiculously simple and dumb "traditional" way of evaluating value, how is the guy with the same number of homers, less RBIs, and less doubles the more valuable guy?
This article was incredibly dumb.
Yep, and in this case, without Ethier, the Dodgers don't make the playoffs. Without Lowe, the Dodgers don't make the playoffs. Without Martin, the Dodgers don't make the playoffs. Etc.
Why are Manny's two months more valuable than full seasons from the other guys?
Astounding.
They wouldn't have gotten that far without Dewayne Wise. Plus Griffey helped in that one game before that.
Maybe then it would have had to be Adam Dunn.
Sure you can argue that :-), but what about Pujols' 342 Total bases, 301 times on base, 364 outs, compared to Ludwick's 318 total bases, 231 times on base and 398 outs?
How about Pujols hitting .339 with runners in scoring position, and slugging .638 with men on base, compared to Ludwick hitting .308 with RISP and slugging .554 with men on?
ok, but you also say:
The Dodgers lost one of those game she homered in...
Ok he was more valuable than Ryan Howard, but Andre Ethier hit .368 and slugged .649 over the same time period- AND he had value to the Dodgers before that- which Manny didn't. By your logic Ethier is the MVP.

I also didn't realize that Wily Mo Pena had basically the same year Andruw did.
Which just proves that Adam Dunn should be 2008 National League MVP.
47.6
Billinglsy had 51.6 and Lowe 49.7
On the Cubbies Dempster had 57.5
On the Phillies
Utley 62.2
Hamels 56.3
Ok even if you disqualify anyone not on a division winner, and all pitchers, and do not take defense into consideration- Manny still doesn't win (he's close though :-)
If you still stick to that 3 team, no pitcher pool... by winshares above bench:
Utley 16
Ethier 14
MANNY 14
Aramis Ram 13
Soto 13
Rollin 12
DeRosa 12
Howard 12....
Well that was one hell of a 1/3 of a year... close but no cigar...
Seriously, had Manny played at level for 80-100 games for the Dodgers, I'd say yes, he's serious MVP candidate (still not as good as Pujols), but 53 games????????????
Manny may have long hair, but he'd sure make an ugly woman. You sure you haven't been drinking?
