CrazyCarl40 Posted May 5, 2010 Author Share Posted May 5, 2010 Cano = more talented baseball player. The end. Pedroia - more successful ball player. Talent can only take you so far. Cano is a great hitter, a capable fielder when he wants to be, and he's got speed on the basepaths. He doesn't have the intangibles or leadership Pedroia has.

Blackout Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 4 hater-riffic responses. Some Yankees fans used to let real recognize real. One championship and you go back to being haters. he's a good player....top 5 second baseman in the league for sure (league meaning MLB) one of THE worst MVP selections ever (maybe not as bad as Joe Gordon but it is in the top 5 of worst MVP selections) 122 OPS+? i can understand why Ichiro got his MVP with a 126 OPS+ because of his 242 hits, .350 average and 50 SB...plus the fact his team won like 500 games that year. as much as i hate to say it, Youk should have won that year. why the voters had hard-on's for Pedroia and Morneau is beyond me.

Blackout Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 Pedroia - more successful ball player. Talent can only take you so far. Cano is a great hitter, a capable fielder when he wants to be, and he's got speed on the basepaths. He doesn't have the intangibles or leadership Pedroia has. more successful?? both players have a ring cano: .309/.341/.488, 96 HR, 415 RBI, 116 OPS+ pedroia:.306/367/.460, 49 HR, 233 RBI, 112 OPS+ cano's played a year longer mind you, but everything looks pretty even if you ask me. Pedroia had that "MVP" trophy to help hype him up...but Marty "Slats" Marion also has an MVP to his name as well. and the "talent can only take you so far" thing WORKS again PEdroia because he is way too small to be a long term solid 2nd basemen. enjoy him in his prime.

NIGHT STALKER Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 What did you expect ? Whoa...what does that mean? Hater responses? When he was referring to my post in that first four responses, how is mine hate or any of the others? I was speaking the truth. He picked Pedroia because he's a Sox fan and I said any Yankees fan would pick Cano...that's hate? Then Carl has to go put in his little zinger about 1 championship in his repsonse. Well Carl, have you got a "core four" on your team? We do...they have 5 rings...count 'em...5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
