1. DL from MN Posted: December 10, 2013 at 10:11 AM (#4614971)8th time for Rickey, 7th for Brett, 5th for Ripken and Trammell
Orel Hershiser is the third Dodger to win the pitching MMP, following Sandy Koufax ('63, '65 and '66) and Fernando Valenzuela ('81). Hershiser is also the first National League pitcher to win back-to-back NL pitching MMPs since Bob Gibson won 3 in a row from 1968 to '70. Hershiser won the '87 award in a run-off vote over Bob Welch.
Will Clark won the NL MMP. He's the first Giant and the first first baseman to win the award since fellow Giant first baseman Willie McCovey won in 1969.
Finally, Frank Viola claimed a narrow victory over Mark Gubicza and Roger Clemens to become the AL pitching MMP. Viola is the second Twin to win this award following Bert Blyleven in 1973. Camilo Pascual effectively tied for the award in 1962, though no runoff was conducted at the twin.
My best pitcher w/out a vote is Greg Swindell (30th).
Also, I was one of the 4 who didn't have Hershiser on my ballot (he was 16th in my system).
Part of my system includes Fangraphs WAR and he got killed in that.
