They don’t get within a few light years of Detroit without him.

Hoooold on
I’m thrilled with the result, but who’s the dingus that gave their first place vote to Miguel Cabrera? When I saw that Mauer missed unanimity by one vote, I assumed it was Jeter or Teixeira that got the other one…
Then again, it’s pretty funny that the MFY got no first place votes. Little victories.

That also makes sense
A 1Bman who can actually play 1st without pulling or tearing or rupturing something everytime he tries to bend over.
Haven’t seen that in the Bronx in a while.

I always love it when guys play for their hometown teams. Makes me all fuzzy inside.

I think
he meant they picked the correct person for the award.
Though I interpreted it the same way you did the first time I read it as well.

yep
Sorry. Guess I should have said “correct” instead of “right”. Or perhaps that that they got both the Cy Young and MVP right. My bad.
ahahahah no it was my bad
I imagined a comma, as in “They got them both in the same year, right?”

When someone from Camden Chat doesn't use a comma
It’s because there shouldn’t be a comma.
Camden Chat. Grammar.

It's funny
Because we get so used to being confused by the lack of commas that all of a sudden we find ourselves putting them in where they don’t belong.
