just noticed, votto has a great chance at the triple crown, especially with howard on the dl. Pujols and votto numbers are so close, it's amazing, but pujols will have a hard time catching him in batting average. What's most amazing to me is that pujols has had a bad year imo (for him), yet his numbers are right near the top. goes to show how great he really is. I've never seen a batting average leader have this low of average this late in the season. votto is probably going to win mvp even if he doesn't get the triple crown because cinci has been in contention all year and because pujols always wins it or is in contention and this will be votto's first, so i see the voters leaning towards him.
