Is it the song where he exclaims, "I like it!" over and over again?

Already my 3rd favorite of the 5 they've released. In about a day of listening.

Carlos Gonzalez - NL MVP
Felix Hernandez - AL Cy Young


They should win these awards, but they won't. And that's a shame.

Carlos Gonzalez - NL MVP
Felix Hernandez - AL Cy Young

While Carlos Gonzalez wouldn't be an atrocious or unacceptable selection, he's not the best. He's only eighth in the NL in WAR (5.0), largely because he's a below-average defensive player, but players like Ryan Zimmerman (6.7), Joey Votto (6.3), Albert Pujols (5.7), and Adrian Gonzalez (5.3), just to cherry pick four bigger names and the league leader in WAR. WAR is a very telling stat, by the way, as it numerically combines a slew of offensive metrics (many of them largely based in OBP numbers, like wOBA and walk/strikeout rates, as well as OPS and other telling offensive statistics) and defensive metrics (like UZR, which is a surprisingly accurate, though not perfect, method of assigning a number to players' defense).

Now I do agree with you on Hernandez and the AL Cy Young, though it would be no injustice if Francisco Liriano or Cliff Lee got it over him. After those three, there's a fall off to Jon Lester, Jered Weaver Zack Greinke, and Justin Verlander to name a few.

My head hurts now.

How ya been, Chris?

The Oakland staff as a whole should win the AL Cy Young.
