Is this a defense of your position? Clemente did not even make the all star team his first 5 years in a league with far fewer players. His best MVP finish before the age of 31 was 4th. He won 1 MVP in 18 years. Clemente had two 100 rbi seasons in 18 years. He had two 90 rbi seasons. He had three 20 hr seasons. His life time average was a good .317 but only .007 points better than Cabrera, his onbase % is 20 points lower. While there is no doubt that he is far superior in the field, the MVP defense is weak.
