You are right there is no point in discussing things with you becuase you intentionally misrepresent my points.
I never said the AL West was the toughest division (although half the teams made the playoffs and three quarters of the teams had better records than the Tigers). I simply said the Tigers played in a much worse division and had a worse reco ...[text shortened]... MVP. If relevant (you brought it up) it supports my general argument of what matters for MVPs/
once Melky Cabrera was suspended for the last 60 games of the season.
McCutcheon's Pirates did not reach the playoffs, BUT, based on YOUR arguments,
McCutcheon was far more valuable to Pittsgurgh's efforts than Posey was to SF.
That is not diminishing Posey's work, just saying SF had many more bats to help with
than did Pittsburgh.
Your turn.
EDIT: And the NL West was a weaker division than both the Central and the East. 😛
