Pitchers as MVP?

[JEFFFESPERMAN]

I've never seen this before. I have Takashi Saito pitching in RFK and he currently leads the Rolaids reliever race, the Cy Young voting and the MVP point standings.

how many games played?

I have seen pitchers in the top five for MVP before. However I do not know if I have ever seen them win MVP. The CD ROM game has the same feature for awards voting. And during one Cleveland Indians replay C.C. Sabathia was in the top 5 for MVP. Never the less ,your man must be tearing it up! What are his numbers?

I have a 2007 team, 153 games, in 90 innings Putz is 11-0 with 44 saves but 14 blown saves. Yet he's going to win Cy Young and Fireman of the Year....and he's leading the MVP race, narrowly, over Rollins.
