Yeah. Whoever's in charge of awarding the MVP was clearly biased toward Albert Pujols. Sure, he's a great player, but 2005 was a career-best for Lee. I mean, 46 HR and 107 RBI! That's freaking awesome!
@breadandcircuses8127 no dude. Lee led MAJORS in batting avg, slugging and OPS and second to Andruw Jones in homers. He also won the Gold Glove and Silver Slugger for same position Pujols plays. So easy to look up rather than assuming stuff. Pujols had MVP worthy numbers -- NL leader in WAR, majors leader in runs, and had more RBI-- and he was on a 1st place team, which is always factored in by most voters. It's fine Pujols won but Lee had better and more league-leading stats in more major categores and was better defensively that year.

How he didn’t win the NL MVP in 2005 is beyond me. Dude had a hell of a year in ‘05.
I really wanted him to win it that year but they gave it to Pujols instead who was only slightly better in a few categories.
