Sure, many baseball fans/writers hate the Yankees. However, what if the Yankees make the playoffs but the Red Sox doesn't?
Besides, who has been totally consistent for the Yanks all year long, and still leads in BA, HR, and RBI? Hell, save for Giambi, A-Rod has been the only really ball-breaking player that has stepped up to the plate for the Yanks.
If Ortiz wasn't with the Red Sox, they still would have Johnny Damon and Manny Ramirez. I dig Big Poppy, but right now A-Rod will win the AL MVP...unless the Yankees blow it, and fail to make the playoffs, thus the Red Sox make it, and Ortiz wins the MVP trophy.
