And Goose, I don't know where you got your RC stat, but ESPN.com's formula gives Howard an RC of 155.5 and Pujols 141.0.

Not to mention all of this hardly has to do with Pujols' reason as to why he was snubbed. He said that it should come from a playoff team. Ummm... Albert, did you forget the fact that the Phillies had two more wins than you in the regular season? Not only that, but it's not like the Cardinals "dominated" their division anyway. They were 39 - 42 against the NL Central, and the Phillies were 41 - 34 against the NL East. For a team that has to play in a division with Pittsburgh and Chicago, and make it to the playoffs... your record against your own division should not be under .500 (not to mention the Phillies had to face the Mets).

Their series' together split 3 - 3 (Cardinals swept opening series, Phillies swept second-half series), so the Cardinals didn't outbeat the Phillies there, either. Pujols, quit running your mouth. Go... be on a cover for some video game or something.
