MFS62 Old-Timey Member Posted November 6, 2024 Posted November 6, 2024 I was intentionally ignoring those since we learned Lindor wasn't even nominated (top 3).Voters were so blinded by the advanced metrics (provided to the voters by MLB) that they never subjected him to the eyeball test.Still pissed.Later

Johnny Lunchbucket Old-Timey Member Posted November 7, 2024 Posted November 7, 2024 MLB should dole out their awards at a glitzy annual gala that coincides with the Winter Meetings, drum up some attention in the offseason.
Edgy MD Site Manager Posted November 7, 2024 Posted November 7, 2024 Indeed.As to people being blinded by an objective standard, and being challenged to be more subjective, I would disagree.
MFS62 Old-Timey Member Posted November 7, 2024 Posted November 7, 2024 MLB is also running a top epic moment of the year award vote, and one of Alonso's homers is on the list.Vote early and often:https://www.mlb.com/brackets/budweiser-legendary-moments?partnerId=it-20241105-11564606-nym-1-A&utm_id=it-20241105-11564606-nym-1-Ahttps://www.mlb.com/brackets/budweiser-legendary-moments?partnerId=it-20241105-11564606-nym-1-A&utm_id=it-20241105-11564606-nym-1-ALater
