Which makes it very sad to see him in third place for All Star voting.

At least Morneau passed Teixeira for the 1B lead.

Speaking of Morneau, what puts Cabrera ahead of him? I think it's pretty clear that Morneau's BABIP will regress but if we're just judging the numbers, Morneau is having a better season. I'm sure Cano's got his fair share of regression to undergo as well but everyone always has that random outlier year.

With that said, 3 incredibly hitters and I think Cabrera finishes up with the best numbers by a smidgen.

6 more hrs and 13 more rbi's i would say puts him ahead of morneau, and morneau will end the season right around 300 and maybe lower in average considering his career avg is 285..

The difference is 5 HR and 10 RBI by the way...and the discussion is not talking about where Morneau may or may not end the season or career numbers, it's this season, and so far this season, Morneau is the best hitter in baseball with a few others close behind him.

Says "MorneauMVP33" :lol:

Just so you know, Cano has:

16 More hits than Morneau
1 Less Home Run
6 More RBIs
7 more runs scored

Csno has a .371 avg. Morneau: .357

How exactly is Morneau the best hitter in baseball.

Didn't notice that Cabrera hit a 3R HR today, my bad on that, if Cabrera is a Triple Crown contender then you have to put Morneau in that category as well.

No, Justin Morneau will never win a batting title. He has hit over .300 twice in seven big league seasons. He will never get close, that is the man that bats third in the order job. I am sorry man I know your a big Morneau fan and no doubt he is off to a good start like all the guys' mentioned in this thread, but he is not a triple crown contender. Miggy ls a very special blend and is one of the few guys' that can do it all at the plate.
