Paul Goldschmidt IS the NL MVP

[FORKWDEVIL]

Goldy is better than the entire Dodgers roster

If you disagree burn in hell.

I agree! He is a franchise player for sure. We better hold on to his ass.

I concur about Goldie. Imagine if he wasn't on the team this year? We might be talking being the NL West Miami Marlins.

Just imagine how poorly the team played when he was slumping and magnify that by 5. They'd be horrible.

 

[powerchord86]

Which way to hell? I guess I need to go and burn there...

 

[powerchord86]

Just kidding...

He does make a convincing case.

 

[Orange602]

I just read through the entire thread. What the fuck, Jahii? Take your meds.

 

[powerchord86]

He probably deserves it.

Maybe Matt Carpenter or (pains to say it) Kershaw give a run.

yeah, statistically he deserves it but us not making the playoffs might hurt him with how the voters are

 

[The Derski]

if Goldy had these stats on a non contending Yankees or Red Sox team they would have given him the award at the all star break.

 

[Wazmankg]

.964 ops & 34 bombs leading the league ? Pretty weak field I'd say. If y'all were contenders maybe but you're not so no. McCutchen or Kershaw.

Kemp had better numbers and didn't win, sorry AZ fans.

If you would of made the playoffs that year he would of. Goldy will win it down the road.

If you disagree burn in hell.

I started to burn, so I jumped into the pool at Chase Field. All better now.

AZ and the Dodgers both have one big thing in common this year...

Most fans will remember both their seasons in 2013 for the pool incident. Neither won anything. The Dodgers are now Yankees West and hopefully starting a similar tradition of paying obscene amounts of money compared to everyone else and getting vastly disproportionate results with it.

Yes, fuck the Doogies!

Pauly G is award the 2013 hank Aaron award. Way to go goldy! Just waiting on that MVP award now...

Goldschmidt was the best hitter in the NL, but the gap between him and Cutch wasn't huge. Or at least not big enough to make up for the position difference IMO. Wouldn't be upset if Goldschmidt won though. He had a fantastic year.

 

[Villain]

Highest wOBA in the NL will get you that Hank Aaron. A case for McCutcheon is just as easily made, but that doesn't make Goldschmidt undeserving - it just puts him in good company. Cutch will get the MVP so the Hank Aaron is a fine consolation prize.

Have to say, after looking, that I'm shocked to learn that Jayson Werth was only .001 behind him in wOBA for the year and actually had a higher wRC+ .... Goldy played in 30 more games though.

Not too surprising. Werth quietly had a great year. Actually, the best offensive year of his career.
