But yea i get what you mean. What do you think about Cabrera most likely winning the triple crown for the first time in almost 50 years?

The Cabrera thing is pretty crazy, although the top batting averages are pretty low this year, which is the real factor that's allowing it to happen. Could still fall apart in the final game, his lead is extremely slim. Would be interesting if despite all this he lost the MVP to Trout, which is possible.

& I think he got it locked up. Theres 1 game left and hes leading with a .331 average over Trouts .324. Unless Hamilton hits 2 HRs, i think its already locked up. This might be the closest MVP race in a loooong time

The Triple Crown has to be the most prestigious award to win in all of sports. Baseball hating fools will criticize it on here, but that sh-t is out of this world difficult to get. You can have a perfect season and not win it. Leader, in batting average, HR's, and RBI's. That's tough.
He can not make any mistakes though. Hamilton is right behind his ass, with 1 HR shy of tying him. Granderson, Dunn, Encarnacion are all 2-3 Homers away from him. Trout and Mauer aren't too far behind in batting average, and I think Miguel Cabrera pretty much has the RBI category on lock down, no one's catching him at this point. I wouldn't be surprised if he ends up leader in RBI's and BA, but tied or fell short in HR's.
