They are all pretty much locked up except for AL MVP. If the Twins win the divsion (which I think they will) Joe Mauer will win. If the Tigers win it will be Derek Jeter. Here are the other winners:

NL MVP- Roidface
AL Cy Young- Zack Greinke
NL Cy Young- Adam Wainwright
AL ROY- ROY
NL ROY- Chris Coghlan

I would say Carpenter has a good case for being the Cy Young...makes me wonder if the votes between him and Wainwright will be split and someone else wins it...which would be a shame, because both have had amazing years...

Carp has a case but I can't see a starter with less than 200 innings pitched winning the Cy. Carp has 187 with 1 start remaining while Wainwright has 227 with 1 start remaining.

Fair enough...

I'd be happy with Waino or Carp, but it would be amazing to see Carp come all the way back... he didnt pitch until, what, middle of May?

Started the season...injured second game (middle April)...came back like you said, middle of May

I can certainly see the case for both...and while I appreciate that Wainwright has given a full season, for the games he has pitched Carpenter's been better...

Congrats on your team winning the division O Ye of little faith.

I wouldn't call it a lack of faith...just looking at what we started with this year, compared to the Cubs, I didn't see us winning this division...

I cannot justify Beckham over Porcello for AL ROY.

Doesn't Sabathia have one more start? If he gets win #20, I think he may give Greinke a run for it.

No. Grienke might have had 27, 28 wins on a good team like the Yankees.

Greinke is having a historic season. If he pitches 7 shutout innings against the Twins on saturday he'll finish the season with an ERA under 2. The last one to do that in the AL was Pedro Martinez in 2000 (1.74). He also leads the AL in fewest hits per nine innings, WHIP, shutouts, ranks second in strikeouts, K/BB ratio, complete games, and is fifth in innings. Greinke's a lock.

agreed 100%, if Greinke doesn't win thats a pretty bad screwjob.

What about Tommy Hanson or J.A. Happ for NL ROY..? I see those as 1 and 2 and then the rest of the pack.

Those two have had excellent seasons (so has Casey Mcgehee) but Chris Coghlin has been a little better. He's playing everyday and has generated a .319/.389/.457 line. Coghlin was called up on May 8 and has hit 9 HR's 44 RBI and scored 76 runs while hitting leadoff for a team contending for a playoff spot. Coghlin also has the most hits in all of baseball since the all star break (Jeter is 2nd). He's had a great season and deserves the ROY award.
