World news – US – This most outlandish vote ever for an MVP was actually just an accident

Major League Baseball has officially concluded its Thursday Week Awards, handing over the Best Player awards to a pair of base firsts – Jose Abreu of Chicago White Sox and Freddie Freeman of the Atlanta Braves

Although there is no real drama surrounding the award announcements – every winner, from Don Mattingly’s Manager of the Year on Monday to Freeman’s MVP on Thursday, was considered a fine choice by the baseball selections group of the American Writers Association We still couldn’t escape without a little argument

It’s all centered on one weird, lonely, meaningless, 10th-place vote cast by a member of the Chicago Cubs whose name you probably couldn’t guess if we got you 100 attempts and an informative guide for spring training

No, we don’t intend to insult Ryan Tibera – it’s the name you’re trying to guess – but we wonder why and how his name appeared on the Saint’s ballot. The Louis Post-Dispatch beat writer and baseball Hall of Fame Rick Hamill

Speaking to Gordon Whitenmayr of Cubs Insider, Hummel revealed that the vote that went to Tepera was a mistake the vote, which was submitted electronically, was actually intended for Washington native Trea Turner

« I’m sure the Tibera family is happy, but there’s no way I would have voted for him » Hamill said, « I was planning to vote for Tria Turner in fact, I remember wrestling with two people from the last place team »

Turner, who led the National League in achieving (78) and three times (4), was listed on 28 of the 30 ballots and ended up in seventh place. He was absolutely worthy of being considered the best player with his teammate, Juan Soto, who finished Fifth Place Knowing it was a mistake makes us feel a lot better about the vote itself, but we may not feel satisfied with the process.

The good news is that the tenth-place vote for Tibera was not a vote that affected the overall award tables nor was it a mark of an all-out ballot. Hamill was among 28 of the 30 BBWAA voters who gave Freeman a first overall vote, the rest were Ballots are on par with their peers, so there’s nothing else here to make a fuss or lose sleep

Tibera, 33, is a veteran relief pitcher forged by the Toronto Blue Jays in Round 19 of the 2009 MLB Draft He made his MLB debut with Toronto in 2015 and went on to appear in 216 matches with the Blue Jays, publishing 3 Collective 64 epochs

Truth be told, these are very reliable figures for a relief jug, which is why Chicago Cubs were content to grab it with a one-year contract worth $ 900,000 last December

In 2020, Tibera appeared in 21 out of 60 games in Chicago during the season shortened over 20 2/3 innings, scoring 392 eps while hitting 31 and walking 12

Again, this is nothing if not a satisfactory production from a moderate person you would never trust in the game at stake but, of course, each game had at least two or three painkillers that perform so impressively that is why we were looking For any value that would pay Tibera to the best player on his team, not to mention the entire league

After Jack Nicklaus and Gary Player played their legendary role to demand action from the governing bodies of the game to prevent the ball from advancing so far, after they were hit by ceremonial openings in Augusta on the first day of the 84th Masters Tournament In a set of enthusiastic pleas that will surely make R & A and the US Golf Association sit down and note as the distance problem intensifies, a player voiced his concerns that unless something is done, the pros will hit the 500 yards distance Nicklaus insists R & A and USGA They will soon introduce a back padded ball, despite claims of not knowing the details The next phase of the R & A and USGA’s Distance Insights Project has been postponed until March due to the pandemic, but then is expected to speed up the process, Augusta President Fred Ridley said Wednesday: «  Hopefully studies that have been going on for some time are close to a call to action, Nicklaus agreed and said, “I think they would most likely have brought it back this year had it not been for Covid, or at least they would have thought about it or were serious about bringing it back,” USGA and R & A said. They’re serious about it. They have to make some changes with it, otherwise all the old golf courses are gone, all the strategies and everything else you had on the golf courses makes no sense at all. The player went further, and painted an almost horrific picture. He said, « This Something Jack and I have been defending and don’t know for how long. ”“ They have to cut the ball again, and they’ll do it or else they’ll drive the first green car in Augusta. Actually, [Bryson] Deschambo, if it’s not humid, if it’s rough, he’ll drive it on. The green zone, he takes three wood and puts it on the third green, « We see things that we hadn’t thought of before, and we are in our cradle. You have players coming who will carry the ball to the past as Deschambo ends now. I said 20 or 25 years ago that players would hit the ball at 400 yards, » And I was mocked about that now I don’t know how far the ball can go, I don’t know what the maximum is, but don’t be surprised if you see them hitting it at 500 yards because these players are so big and so powerful, it’s scary The big hurdle is the threat of litigation from the equipment makers « Bifurcation » was thought to be the preferred option, as R & A and USGA published a survey suggesting that the idea of ​​different rules for amateur and professional games was on the table. « No, they’ll change it for everyone, » Nicklaus said. I know what they’re developing, but a I think it’s a ball, the faster the club head, the less progress you go down if you’re swinging at 125 miles an hour, you’re going to limit that distance if you’re swinging at 100 miles per hour, you won’t lose much distance if you go to 90, you won’t lose any distance. Also about the US election, but refrained from talking about it, Nicklaus gave President Trump a strong support a few weeks ago, and advised his American colleagues to vote for him on Joe Biden. However, when asked whether Trump should now accept defeat kindly, Nicklaus replied: “I think I I’ve said enough about it that I don’t think this is the place to be for politics. ”
