He well may be, but I say Kirk Gibson in 1988 deserves consideration.

I did too, but only because I have a 1965 Willie Mays NL MVP baseball card, and Zoilo Versalles is on it. He also died young: 1995 at the age of 55.

I'm sure. I imagine you saw him play some youth baseball back when you'd vacation in Cuba.

I think a guy with an antique/memoribilia shop on the South side had his MVP trophy for sale at one time.
