August 12, 201212 yr comment_1145541 Without the injury, Id say Votto. With it though you have to go Cueto I'd think followed closely by Chapman. Hell I wouldnt be surprised if Cueto and Chapman both finished in the top 3 in the cy young race.

August 13, 201212 yr comment_1145710 [quote name='Bengals1181' timestamp='1344863054' post='1145696'] The pitching has been stellar, but I gotta go with Ludwick. [/quote] For MVP of the last 2 months? Sure. MVP of the whole season? No way.

[/quote] well, 2 months is half the season at this point, and while Ludwick wasn't in the starting lineup before then, he had a very good rbi/plate appearances ratio before the votto injury.

[/quote] So you'd give a guy hitting .265 with 21 homers and 63 rbis over two pitchers in the cy young race?

[/quote] I think you can make a case either way. Without either Cueto or Ludwick I don't think the Reds are in first place right now. Not sure there's a wrong answer either way.
August 14, 201212 yr comment_1145975 Someone agrees with you 1181... [quote]Not only is Ryan Ludwick (.266/.335/.555, 21 HR, 63 RBIs) making a strong bid for comeback player of the year, he also just might be Reds MVP. Ludwick has hit eight homers with an OPS above 1.100 in the past three-plus weeks, leading the Reds to a 19-8 record during Joey Votto's absence. -- [i]Chad Dotson: [url="http://redlegnation.com/"]Redleg Nation[/url][/i][/quote]
August 14, 201212 yr comment_1146004 I think it has to be Aroldis. If Marshall was still closing, we might not be in first place. Chapman has been unbelievable. I hope we are able to lock him up. Luddy has been huge too. Chapman has been unreal though.
