I'd say Seaver in '69. He was the difference in getting them to a World Series, similar to but greater than what Willie McGee did for the Cardinals in 1985, when he won a Gold Glove and hit for the highest average of any NL player in 10 years. Willie McCovey's 1969 was the greatest season by a great player, but it was all bat with him and the Giants did not make the postseason (but they were in a strong division).
Don't know if Wright should have won in '07, but Rollins was a crazy pick to win considering the 1.000+ OPS seasons by Holliday and Fielder. Whether it's SABR stats or traditional, he should have finished 4th. Probably the Phils winning the east boosted him, but the Rox made the playoffs that year too. Maybe the Coors Field bias held Holliday back.
To a certain degree I feel bad for Lindor. He has been under appreciated ever since becoming a Met despite fully living up to his contract and being one of the best all-around shortstops in the game. It just sucks for him that the one year where he and the Mets as a whole have gotten a lot of attention and praise for the incredible turn around Ohtani decided to have the best season a DH could ever have outside of getting the triple crown.
@@DJpeptobismol which makes very funny somewhat that all the Mets fans are suddenly caping for Lindor. Not too say Lindor doesn’t deserve praise but part of the reason he’s gone under-appreciated is because of Mets fans and the media. You look at the numbers though and every season ends in a pretty good place. That’s why he consistently sneaks in on MVP ballots and stays in contention for silver sluggers and Gold Gloves.
so what you're saying is it sucks because the season the mets and lindor decided to make some noise is the season that ohtani decided to become part of the national league
Ferguson Jenkins's ERA was over a run higher, too. The Mets and Cubs were tied that season, but Jenkins's team won for him a little more, and wins were a notorious Cy Young voting bias back then.
@@ATCguy1973 Ed Kranepool had his best season, and Cleon Jones was in 1969 form. They just didn't hit home runs, or have any bench depth. Seaver had to go nine every time out or get deGrommed.

@@UTNatlChamps he placed below Wright in votes? Wright had a 30/30 season and was a top 5 defender. Rollins was really good too, but not on Wright’s level
Carlos Delgado is my favorite MLB player of all time, I grew up watching him on the Jays and seeing him ball out on the Mets was so satisfying. Thanks for the video!
As a Mets fan I'd be happy for Lindor if he got it, but what would make me more happy is if the team goes on a playoff run. I'd be totally fine with Ohtani winning with a 45-45 or 50-50 season if that means the Mets are in the World Series during what was supposed to be a down year for the club.
Hojo forever! I still emulate that majestic swing he had batting left handed, which was still awesome to witness even when it caught nothing but air. I think they should have retired his number.
Interesting point about the Giants beating the Mets in MVP votes at 18:20 considering the Giants' former history as a New York team. The great thing about the game to me is all the background information you can end up learning.
That is unbelievable! I would have thought Strawberry had at least one. Well, the PhilliesChuck Klein (1932) Jim Konstanty (1950) Mike Schmidt (1980, 1981, 1986) Ryan Howard (2006) Jimmy Rollins (2007) Bryce Harper (2021) Jus sayin...
For any other frustrated nerds, Seaver was traded for Pat Zachry, Doug Flynn, Steve Henderson, and Dan Norman. Hernandez was traded for Neil Allen and Rick Ownbey (wowza). Carter was traded for Hubie Brooks, Herm Winningham, Mike Fitzgerald, and Floyd Youmans. Gilkey was traded for Erik Hiljus, Eric Ludwick, and Yudith(!) Orozio. Lance Johnson signed as a free agent, not via trade (tsk, tsk, @jollyolive) Okay, that's enough of my obnixiousness, and, of course, thanks for everything you do, Jolly.
Wild that if Voting in 1985 was what it is the last 15 yrs it likely goes to either Carter or Gooden. Keith had more RBIs than Sandberg and just a few HRs less while playing an All-World 1st base. Damn even Straw in 88 had superior numbers to Gibson; Dodger really stuck it to the Mets in 88 for sure. Looks like the case for 2024 with Otani getting that 50/50 season as a DH over Lindor who plays everyday likely heading for 30/30 while playing Gold Glove defense at SS and playing everyday. Also convinced if the WC existed Mets not only would've made the playoffs a few more times but would've made another WS run in one of those years. 2005 was a Braden Looper and off-Beltran season from making the playoffs. And lastly, 2021 deGrom before he got injured was not only going to win a 3rd CY Young but would've gotten some MVP votes with the way he was hitting as well.
It’s in part *because* of the White Sox. They’re so bad they’re pushing the Tigers above .500, and the fall of the AL West further accentuates the division’s internal improvement. Of the latter, it’s the Royals one-winter rebuild that has worked out far better than anyone could have expected and Cleveland’s young hitting core bouncing back from a collective off year. Going forward I expect the Guardians to resume their rule, especially when they get their pitching pipeline back in to wack. The Royals will likely bounce back down, the Twins will continue to be bridesmaids and the Tigers…well I’m not crazy enough to try to pretend to guess where they are right now in their cycle.
Have to say, Piazza had some of the easiest opposite field home run swings I've ever seen. Every time I see clips of him going oppo, it just seems to jump off the bat in a way I don't feel like I see from many other hitters.
Hmm, I grew up in NYC and I never would've thought they never had an MVP. I'm a Yankees fan from the Bronx, but it's still New York. I grew up in the 1980s/early nineties, and there wasn't interleague play yet when I was real young. I would've thought either Seaver or maybe Gooden.
I think maybe Gooden got hurt by not being the only pitcher with an ERA under 2.00 that season. Since Tudor also did it, even although Gooden had the lower ERA his ERA didn't look quite as otherworldly. I think in a lot of seasons Tudor could have been an MVP as well.
Maybe they stunk as a team from 2009-14, but the Mets had their first no-hitter, RA Dickey won the CYA, and they had their first batting title in Jose Reyes during that span.
I feel bad for Lindor to a point. But he had a very late start. Even later than Judge. Fans called radio stations and asked if Lindor can quit switch hitting! Even if Ohtani didn’t get a 40/40 let alone 50/50, tough giving it to Lindor. Depending on who you ask of course
I think that only makes his season more impressive. He took that long to start producing and he still leads the NL in fWAR lmao. At the end of the day, slow starts dont matter. CC finished 6th in MVP voting after being traded to the NL mid-season in 08. Your impact for the season is what matters, and while the MVP is a player award when its this close of a race, being a dodger in front of Betts, Freeman and Smith... yeah it should go to Lindor.
As a Cubs fan I hate the Mets with a passion. Whether it’s the tales my dad told me of 1969 or just all the obnoxious Mets fans in 2015. I took comfort in not only the Royals pwning them in the WS but 2016 finally being “the year” 😎 Glad to know that WS title also came with an added bonus over the Mets, an NL MVP award for KB 😜

Personally with Lindor playing the field everyday and hitting, he should be favored above Ohtani. I know that's not going to happen but playing the hardest defensive position at gold glove caliper and hitting like he is should net him above Ohtani
@@nerothelost9605 You don't have to apologize lol. I'm personally more impressed with a player playing almost every game in the field over a player just batting. If Ohtani was pitching and DH'ing then no question about his votes.. Hitting like Lindor is mixed with Gold glove caliper defense impresses me more.

How Dwight Gooden did not win the MVP in 1985 is beyond any sane person in the world, baseball people or not. He was so dominant its almost impossible, even better than DeGrom. It just shows baseball writers have no idea about baseball. Its obvious. If they knew and had talent playing baseball they´d never become writers.
I haven't even watched the video yet but I'll just get it out of the way and say yes Wright should've won over JRoll in 2007 we all know that I'm sorry and go Phils
it makes me annoyed that lindor isn’t gonna win mvp this year. ohtani is playing insane and all but a dh shouldn’t win mvp over a position player. unless if lindor goes nuclear for this last stretch of the regular season, it’s unfortunately going to ohtani
MVP isn't as big in baseball as other sports. More about Cy Youngs, gold gloves and silver sluggers awards. So many great players throughout the league with different skillsets, so people are going to favor one over another. Rey Ordonez defense alone was mvp worthy. It was that good imo.
What Mets player got snubbed the worst? My pick is Dwight Gooden in '85.
Doc for sure, Keith Hernandez is a HOF snub by far

I've described Doc's '85 as a "shonen protagonist season" before for good reason.
A healthy deGrom over the full 2021 could've been his greatest season and made the MVP race interesting. A 1.08 ERA and 373 ERA+ (!!)
Strawberry was robbed in 1988. That's a fact! They definitely changed their votes during the post season no thanks to Keith Hernandez!
Just found my new favorite UA-cam video of OAT! Love u jolly
The best thing about the Mets not having a MVP winner is the frequency at which people get burned for not knowing that in baseball trivia games.
As a Mets fan I'd be happy for Lindor if he got it, but what would make me more happy is if the team goes on a playoff run. I'd be totally fine with Ohtani winning with a 45-45 or 50-50 season if that means the Mets are in the World Series during what was supposed to be a down year for the club.
