If alot of players have had better years than cabrera, i can't seem to recall them. 330 batting avg, 44 hrs., and 139 rbi's, hard to imagine a better year than that....

i can go on. and you're just using three variables - does steals, hits, OBP, OPS count? mike trout had 49 steals with only 5 caught stealing - he led the league in that category - is that worth anything in your book? what about runs? trout led the league in that category by a significant margin.
cabrera had a great year, but let's not go out on a limb and start calling his year historic. you likely did not read my post above, but i stated there that his numbers this year are similar to the ones he posted just two years ago.
