I would think if the season ends up with Ortiz (or any other DH) having the best offensive stats by far over other players then that person should win.

If there is someone who plays both offense and defense and has stats that are close to the DH, that person should win.

DM,

Yeah, A-Rod contributed 14 errors last year. You folks seem to convieniently forget that playing defense is a two edged sword. Playing defense sometimes costs games.

I am tired of this ridiculous argument anyway. The two who left him totally off their ballots should be replaced with writers who are not biased against AL rules (unless they were NY writers, who are idiots anyway).
