I'd like to see him do it. I think he'll come up short in Homers though. But he's certainly got a pretty good shot, and I'm a fan.
Trout has slipped a bit in average but Hamilton has been back on.....if Hamilton stays healthy Cabrera won't catch his homers.
Dunn won't finish strong....Edwin, Trout and Hamilton or the barriers.
With Prince Fielder backing him up he has a real good shot at it.
this is why i didnt think trout was mvp lock
The funny thing is, he has been in the triple crown race for the past couple years, and never won an MVP. IMO, he's one of the more underrated players, or I guess less talked about, player in the MLB
I hope he can find a way to pull it off, may need to watch Joe Mauer making a hard BA push this month.
Josh Hamilton isn't going to get to gain anything back on Cabrera tonight as he had to leave the game with a sinus issue.
When you take into account the ballpark he plays in it really is impressive that he is so close to a triple crown.
On a related note what is the story with the Tigers? They are in the top 4 in both pitching and offense yet have very little chance of making the playoffs. How does that happen?
