Who should get Comeback player of the year???

Question

Every 5 questions are either MVP or Cy Young questions how about comeback player of the year.

A.L. Aubrey Huff is a good canidate

N.L. Maybe Jorge Cantu

Answer 1

I totally agree with Aubrey Huff. Mora could also be in the running for that.

For NL it's tough. I'm going to go with Ryan Dempster who had about a 5 ERA last year and transitioned into being one of the best starters in the league

Answer 2

Josh Hamilton because he went from big drug problems to the probable AL MVP.

Answer 3

AL- Josh Hamilton or Cliff Lee

NL- Carlos Delgado or Fernando Tatis

Answer 4

Mora spent the first half of the season hitting .220 - .230.  He's hitting .500 in August and has the highest average in baseball since the All-Star break.  He's raised his average to .285.  If he played for NYY or BOS we'd never stop hearing about him.

Answer 5

Have you ever heard of a guy named Josh Hamilton? I heard he might be in the running...

Answer 6

I heard somewhere that Josh Hamilton wasn't eligible because he played a lot last year... just saying, but I'm not sure. If he is eligible, he'll get it for sure

Answer 7

I think Cliff Lee because he had 3 consecutive starts in which he gave up 7 runs or more last year, went to triple-A Buffalo, and wasn't even supposed to make the opening day roster. He just barely made it to the number five, now he is the number one pitcher in the AL>  

Answer 8

AL: Josh Hamilton

NL: Jorge Cantu

Honorable Mentions:

Cliff Lee (AL)

Aubrey Huff (AL)

Edison Volquez (NL)

Melvin Mora (AL)

Fernando Tatis (NL)

Albert Pujols (NL)

Answer 9

AL: Josh Hamilton hands down

NL: I dunno, Jorge Cantu?

Answer 10

A.L. Aubrey Huff

N.L. Gabe Kapler

this time last year kapler was coaching in single A. now hes helping the brewers get to the playoffs

Answer 11

I think Huff and Cantu are good choices.

Hard not to consider giving it to Dempster in the NL, though.
