All i will say is on this board we have alot of ostriches who like to bury their head in the sand. So much things are obvious before they are official and then we act like its news when it is officially declared. Smh

Triple Crown is more rare than MVP but the MVP can be a better player than the TC winner as in 2012 when Mike Trout was a better player than Cabrera.

That said, you still want a certain batter in the 3-4-5 spots who can drive them home. You want Micky Mantle batting 3rd, not Billy Martin.You there, on the motorbike! Sell me one of your melons!

Hit Mantle second behind a good OBP guy and Berra - who never struckout and had good power - third.

Or you could have Ted Williams in 1941 and 1942 - 1941 batted 406 and led the league in home runs; 1942 won the Triple Crown - and did not win the MVP either year. That makes sense.
In 1942 it was a travesty,
