Still, they can't beat having to win 2 of 3 to get a one game playoff or sweep to win the division out right.
If Vlad keeps going bonzo and has a couple of games like he did this past week and leads them over the A's, I think the MVP award might rightly be his.
It should be an interesting weekend.

in kruk's defense, i think he was going for an under the radar awards thing with this, but if so, he should've been more explicit about it. if i'm right, good for him i guess - i knew all about figgins, but i didn't realize lidge's stats were as eye-popping as they are. 143 strikeouts as a setup-man/closer???
but yeah, that's some really inane shit, all-round.
[sorry, should've posted this to the BBTN assface of the week thread but i didn't want to dig for it]

Does that support his HoF case?

i dunno. it definitely supports the common perception that he would swing at anything tho

i dunno, looks like he slacked off on swatting at low & away and high & inside ones.
tho, 40-43% on balls gazing the surface of the plate is fantastic.

Dude could absolutely golf some pitches. What the bat could reach, Vlad could hit.
