老虎隊王牌投手韋蘭德,上週才奪下今年的美聯賽揚獎,22日再度擊敗所有的強打者,獲選為美聯最有價值球員,在大聯盟百年歷史上,只有16名先發投手曾經獲選為年度MVP,28歲的韋蘭德用這個榮譽宣告,今年甚至是明年的大聯盟,仍舊要由投手來主宰戰場。
老虎隊王牌投手韋蘭德,是今年美國聯盟最耀眼的球星,他不但演出生涯第二次的無安打比賽,並且在球季結束時,以24勝5敗的戰績,同時奪下美聯的勝投王、三振王以及防禦率王,帶領老虎隊一舉登上美聯中區的冠軍,上個星期他毫無意外地囊括所有第一名的選票,成為美聯賽揚獎的得主,甚至顛覆大聯盟既有的慣例,以先發投手的身份奪下美聯最有價值球員,韋蘭德成為史上第16位先發投手,勇奪年度的MVP。
韋蘭德獲得近半數13張第一名的選票,最後以總分280分奪下美聯的最有價值球員,總得分遙遙領先美聯的打擊王、打點王等強打者,這對韋蘭德來說,是比賽揚獎更大的榮耀,因為上一次由先發投手獲得MVP,已經要追溯到1986年的傳奇投手火箭人克萊門斯,而且這在大聯盟百年歷史上,至今只出現過16次。

[影片] 專家分析Verlander為何能拿下MVP
今年28歲的韋蘭德,在2004年選秀會第一輪被老虎隊挑走,2006年就成為老虎隊的主力投手,今年年薪已經高達1285萬美金,他不但耐投,而且就算投到了第九局,仍舊可以飆出高達100英哩的球速,目前的韋蘭德才剛剛走向職棒生涯的高峰,只要保持健康,未來幾年,他都會是大聯盟最令人畏懼的超級強投。
