Should Lee be MVP?
Derrek Lee is five hits away from becoming just the fifth NL batter in history to hit 45 or more home runs in a 200-plus hit season:

If the Cubs weren't the Cubs, Derrick Lee would definitely be MVP.

That depends on how un-cublike they were. His numbers are nearly identical to Pujols.
