I would say Riv or Shef are both more valuable. Jeter, as team leader, is more valuable to the Yanks than A-Rod will ever be.<BR/><BR/>I've always thought it ridiculous how they vote on this award. It's really not about being the most <I>Valuable</I> mlayer. It's about having the best numbers and I always thought that was wrong. Without A-Rod, the Yankees would be right where they are. Without Ortiz, the Sox would have lost at least 10 more games.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18153935609499338685noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15483094.post-1128131261171888692005-09-30T21:47:00.000-04:002005-09-30T21:47:00.000-04:00Ortiz was obviously the most valuable offensive pl...Ortiz was obviously the most valuable offensive player. But A-Rod was almost as good offensively. Defensively, A-Rod is infinatly more valuable than Ortiz. So when we combine the two factors, A-Rod wins hands down. Of course, I hate the Yankees, so maybe we can find someone else.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
