Message: [QUOTE="mauconnfan, post: 5340413, member: 489"] If it’s Raleigh it’s an absolute joke. This shouldn’t be close but I know it will. I mean he’s catching 75% of the games at a just above average rate as a defender. He’s DHd for quite a few HRs which Bench couldn’t do in his MVP year where he caught 159 games. He’s had a great year for a catcher and for him, a .226 lifetime hitter who’s hitting .247 which just doesn’t impress anyone add the fact he strikes out a ton 2nd place isn’t too bad. He’s 80 points or more behind in BA/OBP has less hits, walks, runs I mean this is baseball. Judge is a way above average OFer (please don’t tell me about one drop because that will tell me how little you know about baseball) one of the best in the game and minus the arm injury they do not take extra bags on the man. If you’re going to give it to a guy who’s had a great year for a position rather than a guy who has absolutely been a consistent terror in the AL for years it’s a joke. It could happen because the voters aren’t very good at understanding the game. Almost expect Judge to get screwed because idiots like change. [/QUOTE]
