Pujols vs. Utle...What shouldn't be this close? Pujols vs. Utley? I agree, but you should probably flesh out your logic a bit. I assume you're saying that Pujols is outperforming Gonzalez by more than Utley is outperforming Sanchez (true), and therefore should be getting more votes at his position than Utley is at his (true) assuming rational voters (definitely not true, but we're idealists here). I further assume that you're acknowledging Sanchez's defense-heavy contributions as a way of suggesting that Utley may be outpacing him by more than Pujols is outpacing Gonzalez because Chase's value is flashier and more easily (and reliably...and accessibly) quantified than Freddy's, while both first basemen are crushing at the plate (true). <br /><br />Am I connecting the dots properly? If so, I agree whole-heartedly. If not, I'll be curious to find out how YOU connected them.Davehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10535450896576751111noreply@blogger.com
