I'm sure offense and playing for a better team was why Crawford won.
So I'll say one thing. Brandon Crawford or Nick Ahmed are the second best SS in the NL. Some stats have them pretty close to Simmons, but Simmons is still the best.
Shame he played on such a joke team, and didn't have the offensive season he could have. I'm sure offense and playing for a better team was why Crawford won.
I think the bigger injustice is Markakis not winning the award.
If Simmons was playing in San Fran and Crawford in Atlanta, Simmons would have won. The legitimacy of a lot of these awards was lost a long time ago. More of a beauty contest than anything.
Crawford's good, but that's horse****.
