Votto and Cozart got absolutely screwed in the Silver Slugger awards today. Votto was the best hitting 1b in all of baseball and of course the NL. Goldschmidt was better than Votto in one state, RBIs, which is probably one of the most unimportant stats when it comes to assessing value of a hitter.
And Cozart was also the best hitting SS in all of baseball this year. And the only stat Seager was better than him was RBIs as well.
Baseball awards are stupid.

I know it shouldn't matter for the awards, but Goldschmidt was on a playoff team and Votto was.....not. I'm sure that made most of the difference for the voters.
