Fair enough I found it hard to agree with the concept that a Triple Crown was an automatic MVP with no regard to the value of the numbers. If you look at the past TC winners they were also leaders in WAR. Chuck Klein was the only TC winner since 1901 that wasn't also the leader in WAR. He did not win the MVP.
Ted Williams should have been MVP in both his TC seasons in which he also led in WAR.
