he could win it for the fact that they award the MVP to the best player even tho it should be the player who is most valuable to his team. i dont even think any met should win it cause they have too many big time hitters. howard would win it hands down if they made the playoffs cause he singlehandedly kept them in this race.
but the hank aaron award is really supposed to be the most outstanding individual offensive achivement, which is exactly what he has done.
since the voters are idiots, he very well may win the MVP anyway, even if they don't make the playoffs. you could make a case for him even if they didnt make it cause he kept them close, but theres about 8 teams right there along with the phillies. theres only one distinctive team in the NL, and they have an entire lineup of MVPs.
