here are my 2 cents. I always thought each statistical category should be given a point value. For instance each homerun gets 50 points, each RBI gets 25 points and say 1000 points for Average (i.e. a .220 average gives you 220 points etc..) The person with the most points wins.

The problems with all of the systems seems to be that it doesn't reward anyone for doing better than everyone else. Plaw's 4-3-2-1 system is good but holding average constant did a person with 6 hrs and 8 rbis have a better month than someone with 5 hrs and 25 rbis?
