LOVE IT! Certainly didn't expect him to win it but glad he did. I think the Phils are the first team to win it back to back. Congrats JRoll!

Its easy to be a fan of a team that spends $300 mil a year.

I didn't think he'd win it either... i really thought he'd finish 2nd by a pretty wide margin.

Oh its obvious you are loyal to your teams. I'm just saying its easy to throw stones at other teams when you root for the evil empire.

whatever

anyway....i didn't look at the numbers but when i do..how did rollins win..honestly he had a great year..but holiday..wow



Rollins batted .296 with 30 homers, 94 RBIs and 41 steals He led the league in runs (139) and triples (20).........very good numbers no doubt

Holliday hit .340 with 36 homers, 137 RBIs and topped the NL in hits (216), total bases (386) and doubles (50)...i have to give the edge to holliday...way better average..more hr's and a ton more rbi's...plus he led the league in hits, total bases and doubles
