How good is Albert Pujols?

Posted by David (aka David) Nov 24 '09, 15:26

This is Baseball-Reference's All-Time points ranking for baseball players with MVP votes:

1. Barry Bonds (7 wins) 9.30
2. Stan Musial* (3 wins) 6.96
3. Ted Williams* (2 wins) 6.43
4. Willie Mays* (2 wins) 6.06
5. Albert Pujols (3 wins) 5.89
6. Mickey Mantle* (3 wins) 5.79
7. Hank Aaron* (1 win) 5.45
8. Lou Gehrig* (2 wins) 5.44
9. Joe DiMaggio* (3 wins) 5.43
10. Alex Rodriguez (3 wins) 5.21

He passed Joe DiMaggio, Lou Gehrig, Mickey Mantle and Hank Aaron with today's win. Just look at those names and consider he's done all this by the age of 29.

Two other notes: his worst MVP performance in his 9-year career was 9th place. That's the *only* time he finished outside the top 4 in the voting. -- nm - David Nov 24, 15:28 2
- and the other point? -- nm - tRuMaN Nov 24, 15:31 1
  - It wasn't well worded but he's never finished lower than 9th and only lower than 4th once. -- nm - David Nov 24, 15:35
