David Wright MVP

Chipper Jones   6 HRs  18 RBI's .449 BA   31 hits,  granted he has 8 more at bats than does Wright...but LARRY is the man so far! If you want to go to the field and consider that...Wright has 3 errors and Chipper has 1.

I am not taken anything away from Wright. He is a great ballplayer! But, right now, Chipper has the edge.

UV ... it is very nice to see a Braves fan see the Wright is an animal. But you also gotta think that Chipper gets injured a lot and he is old . By the end of the year wright will have the advantage

Well, Wright obviousely has started a milllion times better than last year, so if he can keep it consistent, he'll be in the talks.  Chipper is pretty impressive, every year you wonder whether he's lost it, and he just keeps producing. That being said, i think injuries is his main concern. He hasn't played a full season since 2003 (although he did hit 500 AB's last year) and missing those games will no doubt keep him from winning any MVP awards.  Also, it's pretty apparent in MLB now that the voters do take into consideration whether you're doing it for a winning team or at least a competitive one.

a lot of the time they base the mvp award on the teams success as well.  if thats the case then wright probably has the advantage over chipper.

It definitely is way too early in the year to talk about MVP considerations.  As much as I think Wright deserved it last year, and if he continues the pace that he is on he should win it in a landslide this year;  I want to be careful saying he is the MVP already because he had an awful streak in the beginning of the season last year and I don't want to see the same thing happen at some point this year.
