Beltre Nets Third
2004-10-28 10:42
Update: Also, this is a de facto thread for the Dodgers' decision to remove player names from the backs of uniforms. Adrian Beltre finished third in the Internet Baseball Awards voting for National League Most Valuable Player, but in odd fashion. Out of more than 1,500 ballots, Beltre had the second-most first-place votes, behind landslide winner Barry Bonds. Beltre had the most second-place votes. He had the second-most third-place votes, behind Albert Pujols. However, Beltre was entirely left off the top 10 on more than 150 ballots - approximately 10 percent - and that dropped him behind Pujols into third. The balloting gets a little crazy toward the bottom - example, Hee Seop Choi's second-place vote. Another Dodger third-place finisher besides Beltre was Jim Tracy, for NL Manager of the Year.
