Who do you want to win the NL Triple Crown?

NamesJay · 08-24-2010, 03:10 PM

This isn't about if you think someone will win the Triple Crown... it is who you would like to see win the Triple Crown.

There are only two legitimate candidates... Joey Votto and Albert Pujols, so those are the only players listed in the poll.

Sorry, if a mod can please move this to the baseball forum I would appreciate it.

I chose Pujols, because I think he is running out of chances to accomplish this feat. He's having a fantastic year, and this would just cement his legacy as one of the greatest hitters ever.

Votto won't get it. Pujols has a shot.

I doubt that anybody will win a Triple Crown and if they do, it will be a miracle. The Triple Crown has to be the hardest thing to achieve in sports IMO

Well Pujols is all of 4 batting average points away at the moment.

I love Pujols but it would be sweet to see Joey go from Stud to Superstar by winning the Triple Crown!

Miguel Cabrera (see avatar) or Josh Hamilton are the only two guys that have any sort of shot right now...

No chance bro. Bautista is a lock for HRs in AL. Hamilton will likely win AVG. And Miggy will take the RBI title. Not going to happen. Pujols is leading NL in HRS, RBIs and is 3 points back in AVG.

Are you serious? Cabrera is 16 points and 9 HR away, Hamilton is 12 HR 15 RBI away. In the NL, Pujols is 3 points away, and Votto is 6 RBI and 4 HR away.

Agreed vikingstwins, he obviously doesnt pay attention to stats. Ouch.

pico04 · 08-24-2010, 08:31 PM

He has Miggy as his Avatar....lol!

Homer pick's usually dont involve stats....

mnvikingstwins · 08-24-2010, 08:34 PM

You know, I forgot about Joe Mauer. He has the best shot at winning Triple Crown, MVP, and even Cy Young

pico04 · 08-24-2010, 11:44 PM

Nah I think Troy Tulo and Elvis Andrus will combine their stats and share the Triple Crown....they might need to borrow some HR's but they got as much of a chance as Miggy does.....
