you guys are crazy!!!

so what if hinske ALMOST hit for the cycle, so what?! if not for his blunder, which really could have been scored 2 errors, this would have been a 6-2 game, and Shields would have gone 7 innings, with only 2 earned runs, and would be hands down the MVP. unfortunately for shields, Hinske fucked that up, and the score ended up much closer, and you all don’t seem to see that.

Hey don't blame me, I voted for Kodos

Err…...Shields.

Listen, Hinske made his mistakes and then he atoned for them. The people here felt that his efforts to redeem himself were successful, and they rewarded him accordingly. For what it’s worth, WPA had Hinske as the MVP by far, while Jamie Shields was actually in the negative. Can’t really explain the last part of that, but whatever.

In any case, it’s only an MVP poll.

First game back and he goes 3-4 with 2 RBIs? Glad to see he picked up where he left off.

Their plans to take out Navi and make it look like an “accident” have been foiled. lol
