As of this moment - Is Carlos Betran The NL MVP?
Just yes or no.
I actually felt that Wright has been the more valuable Met, but you can't argue the numbers. And I feel that it is amost even between he & Pujols. The tie goes to the team with the better record. Thoughts??

My Cardinal bias shall shine like a beacon of light.
The Cardinals would be absolutely sunk this year without Pujols. Their offense would suck, their pitching would suck. They would be horrendous. Pujols has won many games for them, both directly (like the 1-0 game Colorado game where he hit the solo HR, and many other GW RBI's) and indirectly (his other, non GW numbers). If we're going for "value," I don't think the Cards make the playoffs without him. I think the Mets still make the playoffs quite handily without Beltran. That being said, I'm in the better-player-should-win-MVP camp, and I think Pujols still wins that one too. Although that'll take further analysis. Aeyyyyyy!

Out of curiosity, I looked up the current "Win Shares" numbers for the NL. FWIW, it puts Pooholes up top, followed by Derek Lee. Beltran, 25th, is the third highest-ranked Met, after Wright (11th) and Floyd (18th).
Not sure if this says more about the MVP race, or about Win Shares (which, IINM, seem to have pretty much fallen off the stathead face of the Earth).
