Fair enough.

When I was a kid, I used to have this kindda argument with my buddy every year, come all-star time in baseball. I'd vote for the guys having the great year, even if their names were Greg Gross or Larry Hisle. He'd vote for the Rod Carew-Tony Gwynn-Don Mattingly types on the basis of their overall career, regardless of current season. We'd always debate who was more deserving. Never did quite resolve that one.
