MVP! MVP! MVP!

Hey Guys!

So, the MVP winners were announced and they are... MIGUEL CABRERA FOR AMERICAN LEAGUE AND BUSTER POSEY FOR NATIONAL LEAGUE! Lets get down to the details...

Miguel Cabrera 
Oct. 3: Clinches Triple Crown in season finale at Kansas City, batting .330 with 44 homers and 139 RBIs.

That's when Miguel Cabrera received an ovation for winning the Triple Crown. Anyways, his stats were amazing this year.

Home Runs: 44 
RBI's: 139
Batting Average: .330
Games: 161

Last year he had a .344 average, just to notice. So yeah, these were his amazing stats. He had a great year but sadly could not produce much offense during the postseason. He was the first Triple Crown winner since 1967 when Carl Yastrzemski won it on the Red Sox. It was a tough race because many people also wanted Mike Trout to win it but Cabrera out beat Trout. I personally never liked Miguel Cabrera, I don't know, I just don't like him. So yeah, he had a great year for the Tigers, and will probably keep it up in his future seasons.

Buster Posey

This is Buster Posey during the Giants victory parade. He also had a great year, obviously. He helped the Giants win the world series and had a grand slam during one of the postseason games. This is his second World Series championship and he now has 2 rings. Here's his stats.

Home Runs: 24
RBI's: 103
Batting Average: .336
Games: 148

Buster Posey is only 25 and already has an MVP award. Last season he only played 45 games because of injuries. In 2010, he was rookie of the year with 18 home runs, 67 RBI's, and .305 batting average in 108 games. This year he proved that he has power and can consistently hit. He's a great player and deserved it at a young age. He's also a great catcher too. I wonder what the future will look like for him.

So what do you guys think? Do you think Miguel Cabrera and Buster Posey deserved the MVP awards? I think they did. Comment!
