2006 National League
Only one NL team won over 90 games, and
that was the New York Mets with 97. The Mets had to deal with late-season
pitching injuries, and only made it to the NLCS, losing to NL Central champion
St. Louis in seven games. The Cardinals then went on to gain an upset
victory in the World Series, beating the Tigers in just five games.
The Mets easily won the East, St.
Louis was 1.5 games in front of the Central with 83 wins, and San Diego and Los
Angeles each had 87 wins in the West, with LA getting the Wild Card spot.
The worst record in the league belonged to the Cubs, who lost 96, followed by
the Pirates with 95 losses. Philadelphia and Atlanta had the most
productive offenses, while San Diego and Houston led the pitching patrol.
Freddy Sanchez of Pittsburgh won the batting title at .344, followed by Florida's
Miguel Cabrera at .339. Philly's Ryan Howard led in HR and RBI, Jose
Reyes of NY in triples and steals, Sanchez in doubles, Barry Bonds in on-base,
and Albert Pujols in slugging and OPS. Chase Utley scored 131 runs, Carlos Beltran and Jimmy Rollins 127 each. Juan Pierre had 204 hits, Utley 203 and Sanchez 200. Sanchez had 53 doubles and Luis Gonzalez 52. Reyes had 17 triples and 64 steals. Howard had 58 homers, Pujols 49, Alfonso Soriano 46. Howard drove in 149, Pujols 137, Lance Berkman 136.
The leading pitchers in wins had
but 16, a mark reached by Aaron Harang, Derek Lowe, Brad Penny, John Smoltz,
Brandon Webb, and Carlos Zambrano. Roy Oswalt was just ahead of Chris
Carpenter in ERA, while Harang edged Jake Peavy in strikeouts. Oswalt had a 2.98 ERA, Carpenter 3.09, Webb 3.10. Harang had 216 strikeouts, Peavy 215, Smoltz 211. Trevor
Hoffman led the league in saves, while Webb edged Oswalt in ERA+.

Top player: Albert
Pujols. He led in WS, WAR, and WARP, and played for the winning team.
Hard to pick against him. Pujols is the best player in the game right
now.
#1 Albert Pujols, #2 Carlos Beltran, #3
Miguel Cabrera, #4 Lance Berkman, #5 Ryan Howard, #6 Chase Utley.
Top pitcher: Brandon Webb in a close
race over an unimpressive field. No one stands out, but Webb was the best
overall.
#1 Brandon Webb, #2 Chris Carpenter, #3 Roy
Oswalt, #4 John Smoltz, #5 Aaron Harang.
Top rookie: Ryan Zimmerman edges
Hanley Ramirez mainly because Zimmerman is younger and should have a better
career.
Top manager: Willie Randolph held the
Mets together, but couldn't make it through the postseason.
2006 American League
Detroit got off to a surprisingly fast
start, chased by the defending champ White Sox and the surging Twins.
Minnesota caught them at the end and won the Central with 96 victories to the
Tigers' 95, good for a Wild Card. The Chisox were shut out. The
Yankees persevered in the East with 97 wins, while Toronto won 87 and Boston
86. Oakland had its usual superb second half to take the West with 93
victories to the Angels' 89. On the other side of the coin, Tampa Bay
lost 101 and Kansas City 100. Detroit and Oakland won the Division Series
matchups, with the Tigers taking to ALCS to move on to the World Series, which
they lost in five games. The Yankees were the top offensive
club, followed by Cleveland and Chicago. Detroit and Minnesota were best
at keeping opposition runs off the board.
Joe Mauer emerged to win the
batting title by four points over Derek Jeter, .347 to .343, with Robinson Cano third at .342. David Ortiz won the home
run crown with 54, trailed by Jermaine Dye at 44 and Travis Hafner and Jim Thome at 42. Ortiz also led with 137 RBI. Justin Morneau was second at 130, Raul Ibanez third with 123. Grady Sizemore led in
runs (134) and doubles (53). Ichiro Suzuki led in hits with 224, Carl Crawford in steals (58) and triples (19),
Travis Hafner in OPS and OPS+.
Johan Santana won the pitching Triple
Crown, tying with Chien-Ming Wang with 19 wins while leading in ERA and
strikeouts. Jon Garland won 18. Santana had a 2.77 ERA, Roy Halladay 3.19, C.C. Sabathia 3.22. Santana had 245 strikeouts, Jeremy Bonderman 202. Francisco Rodriguez led with 47 saves.

4.) Joe Torre 15
Top player: Derek Jeter.
Jeter has built himself a Hall of Fame career, not just in the newspapers but
on the field. This is a year when you could make a case for a pitcher as
the MVP, but as I split these Jeter is the clear winner, leader in both Win
Shares and WARP among position players. Others did well, Jeter did
better.
#1 Derek Jeter, #2 Joe Mauer, #3 Grady Sizemore, #4 David Ortiz, #5 Carlos Guillen, #6 Travis Hafner.
Top pitcher: Johan Santana. How
could it be anyone else? A terrific run for Santana.
#1 Johan Santana, #2 Roy Halladay, #3 Mike Mussina, #4 Curt Schilling, #5 Jeremy Bonderman.
Top rookie: Jon Papelbon succeeded in
a pressure-filled situation for a contending team. The writers' selection of Verlander would be the best long-term choice.
Top manager: Jim Leyland turned the
Tigers around, even if the final result isn't all they could have hoped
for.
2005 National League
The St. Louis Cardinals were the winningest
team in the league, but could not repeat their World Series trip as the
second-place NL Central and Wild Card reps Houston Astros went to, and got
swept in, the Series. St. Louis' 100 wins were well ahead of Atlanta's
90, Houston's 89, and San Diego's 82 among playoff teams. Philadelphia
won 88, Florida and New York 83, Milwaukee and the new Washington Nationals
(formerly of Montreal) 81. Colorado and Pittsburgh brought up the rear
with 95 losses.
Derrek Lee won the batting title, led in
hits, total bases, doubles, slugging and OPS. Lee hit .335, Albert Pujols .330, Miguel Cabrera .323. Lee had 199 hits including 50 doubles. Todd Helton led in
on-base. Andruw Jones led in HR and RBI. Jones hit 51 homers, Lee 46, Pujols 41. Jones drove in 128, Pujols and Pat Burrell 117 each. Pujols led in runs with 129,
and Jose Reyes led in steals with 60 and triples with 17.
Dontrelle Willis led in wins,
Roger Clemens in ERA, Jake Peavy in strikeouts, and Chad Cordero in
saves. Willis had 22 wins, Chris Carpenter 21, Roy Oswalt 20. Clemens had a 1.87 ERA, Andy Pettitte 2,39, Willis 2.63. Peavy had 216 strikeouts, Carpenter 213. Clemens' 221 ERA+ ran away from everyone, with teammate Pettitte's 174 good for second.

Top player: Derrek Lee. A
marvelous season that was clouded when the Cubs fell out of the race. He
was still the best player in the league, just ahead of Albert Pujols.
#1 Derrek Lee, #2 Albert Pujols, #3 Jason
Bay, #4 Brian Giles, #5 Andruw Jones, #6 Morgan Ensberg.
Top pitcher: Chris Carpenter was the choice of the voters and the choice of WAR. OK then.
#1 Chris Carpenter, #2 Dontrelle Willis, #3 Roger Clemens, #4 Roy Oswalt, #5 Andy Pettitte, #6 Pedro Martinez.
Top rookie: Ryan Howard. Howard's half-season was better than Francouer's half-season or Taveras's full season.
Top manager: Bobby Cox rallied the
Braves from a sea of injuries, without panic. Another fabulous season for
the old veteran.
