I'm surprised that no one has mentioned that Ryan Braun(the 2011 NL MVP) has been suspended 50 games for testing positive for a PED. While the baseball writers of America have said that they will not give his award to the runner-up, I feel that if his appeal is not successful and his ban is upheld, then he should be stripped of the award. Why should he be rewarded, especially since it sounds like he knew about the positive test a MONTH before the MVP awards were announced.
