He also led the league the year before in PA, R, H, 3B, HR, RBI, BB, AVG, OBP, SLG, OPS, and WAR. This year he did not lead in PA or 3B, but he led every other category.

As for Nettles, he won the MVP last year in his age 22 season and should be around the top 3 this year (again haven't done it yet, so not 100% sure). Last year he hit .320/.409/.570/.979 (192 OPS+, 203 wRC+) with 40 HR and 110 RBI. This year he hit .311/.386/.579/.965 (170 OPS+, 171 wRC+) with 43 HR and 118 RBI. He's playing for the Braves who are a real sad sack outfit, with a .462 WPCT in 33 seasons. They've made the playoffs five times and never won the big enchilada.

I'm waiting for someone to have a run of MVP's like that in my league. Cobb has several, but I'm not sure if I've had anyone win back to back yet. I know for sure I haven't had anyone win 3 in a row. Same for Cy Youngs. Got to see the top players importing for 88. No one too exciting, but sometimes there's a surprise or two the game doesn't feature in the email. Fingers crossed.
