Cutch's second half slide led the Succo's into oblivion.
Granted, he has a HUGE impact on that club and he's a good ball player, but so is James McDonald and his name sure wasn't thrown up there for Cy Young with the second half he had. Cutch's impact didn't lead the club into anything special. In sports you have to win to be a winner.
If he can drag the Bucs into winning their division next year and can gather another Gold Glove, I'd definately support him for MVP.
The fact that he didn't even excel in garbage time at the end of the season when other teams weren't particularly motivated speaks volumes in my mind.

Congrats to Miggy. What an AMAZING season. We probably saw something that won't be repeated in our lifetime. That's what an MVP does.
