Well, you can't make everyone do things the way you want them to. Like, in this thread, one individual really had nothing beyond WAR. I think that's as dumb as screaming "TRIPLE CROWN!!!!"

If a voter viewed Trout and Cabrera as very close, they tip they're vote to the side of the guy who made history and whose team made the playoffs. If someone uses that logic, I have no problem with it.

If someone uses that logic, I have no problem with it. I guess the main argument against those lines of reasoning is, do those things make Cabrera more valuable? I would say no, they don't. Trout still had a better year and was a more valuable player.
