One guy helped his team come back and get into the playoffs and the other didn't. That is what an MVP does imo. He steps up when it's time to step up.

I agree completely. When you look at the stats Trout slowed down the last two months of the season. If he wasn't in the lineup the Angels still finish 3rd or 4th in the AL West and don't make the playoffs. Meanwhile Cabrera led his team to the playoffs. Without him they don't make the playoffs.
