- David Wright
Wright was better than A-Rod THIS year, there I said it! He should come in second to Pujols in MVP voting and will someday win it outright. Slight decline in steals but a rise in power numbers across the board. Why would the Mets EVER think of trading this guy!?
Final Numbers: 115/33/124/15/.302
- Ryan Braun
Mazol Tov! It’s nice to see a rookie of the year winner actually keep his stats above average the next year after winning the award. Missed some time toward the end of the season but still a solid performer.
Final Numbers: 92/37/106/14/.285
- Aramis Ramirez
Steady as always all season and didn’t miss any time due to an injury. He did strikeout the most since 2002, but also set a career high in walks. Looks like the Cubs might be better off if he was hitting 3rd, just a thought.
Final Numbers: 97/27/111/2/.289
- Chipper Jones
Larry can keep a mid-level HMO in business all by himself. He did win the batting title, which the Braves made sure of by holding him out of some games toward the end of the season, but whateve. The average is nice and he is very patient at the plate, but declining in the power numbers.
Final Numbers: 82/22/75/4/.364
- Mark Reynolds
Alright he hit almost 30 HRs and drove in almost 100 and stole 11 bases. But he struck out 204 times in 539 at-bats to hit .239 on the season, his listed weight is 220 pounds. So he almost struck out and hit his weight.
Final Numbers: 87/28/97/11/.239
- Troy Glaus
Not too bad for his first full season hitting behind Pujols, but someone with more talent would of exploded in that hitting spot. Expect the Cardinals to find that type of hitter this offseason.
Final Numbers: 69/27/99/0/.270
- Casey Blake
Casey helped the Dodgers, along with some long-haired freak in left, win the West. He has been a steady hitter his entire career and may end up looking for a new team this off-season.
Final Numbers: 71/21/81/3/.274
- Kevin Kouzmanoff
He is swinging more for the fences and at Petco that means more strikeouts and a declining average. Less walks meant a OBP of less than .300.
Final Numbers: 71/23/84/0/.260
- Edwin Encarnacion
With 26 HRs and only 75 runs scored with 68 RBIs meant he wasn’t hitting with runners on and could not be knocked in because he could not get on base. Doesn’t help his average went down .040 points.
Final Numbers: 75/26/68/1/.251
- Ty Wigginton
He hit 12 HRs, drove in 26, and scored 19 runs in the month of August. Yeah that’s great, but there are 5 other months in a whole season.
Final Numbers: 50/23/58/4/.285
