It was the tightest race of the entire season. Â The AL MVP award could have went one of two ways: Mike Trout, the dynamic rookie who was a force the second he stepped on the field or the eventual winner Miguel Cabrera, the triple crown winner who is arguably the best hitter in the league. Â Both deserved the honor, but Cabrera’s historic season put him over the edge. Â Not to worry Trout fans, if he stays this good, there will be many MVP awards in his future. Â As for the National League, the honor went to World Series winner Buster Posey who has himself a phenomenal year.
