Barry Bonds was dominant in winning the 2001 NL MVP. He hit 73 home runs and notched 137 RBI for the San Francisco Giants that year. In 1992, Dennis Eckersley won the AL Cy Young and MVP, dominating the league out of the bullpen with 51 saves and a 1.91 ERA. The thing is, he pitched only 80 innings that season, while Minnesota's Kirby Puckett put up MVP-like numbers batting .329 and posting 110 RBIs over 160 games. Considering how little he played, comparatively, Eckersley's year was one of the worst ever for an MVP.
