Post #1 » by **humanrefutation** » Sat Oct 27, 2018 1:16 am

Congrats to Christian Yelich for being named the National League Hank Aaron Award winner, presented to the league's best hitter.

Since the award was established in 1999, the Brewers have had two recipients: Prince Fielder in 2007 and Yelich in 2018.

JD Martinez won it in the AL.

Celebrating coming 2nd his lame as hell. But Stearns traded for the MVP, signed a gold glove worthy OF, and one of the best F/A starters. How did he not win this award?

Same reason Cain didn't get a gold glove. It is a mystery.

I swear teams have some sort of vendetta against the Brewers. I'm guessing they think they were all smoke and mirrors this season.

Brewers never really got a lot of respect from the national media. And this isn't just homerism on my part - I feel like they actively discredited the club even through the final game of the year. It was like they were waiting for the Cubs to run away with it, and then pivoted to the Dodgers once the Brewers came back to win the Division and the Cubs were knocked out.

Yup, the Brewers didn't win the division, the Cubs lost it. If Yelich isn't named MVP...

Yelich wins the Silver Slugger.

Snitker wins NL Manager of the Year. Counsell was robbed.

BBWA had a real hard on for the braves this year

Counsell not winning is a joke.

I'm kinda pissed off about this. Very strange.

Counsell with the best record in the NL and a NLCS trip. How that doesn't earn him Manager of the Year is beyond me.
