  • Absolutely perfect! This guy is a pros pro. One of the most underrated players in the league.

  • I'm surprised the Triple Crown winner didn't win the cover vote. McCutchen is a great player too though, so I'm happy.

    Also glad CC didn't win, mainly because I hate the Yankees. ;)

  • Congrats on the victory, 'Cutch. I finally have a reason to buy an MLB game. Go Buccos!
  • Not a baseball fan, but kudos Mr. McCutchen.

  • I just dont like sport's games, I never have, but its interesting to see who is on the cover.

  • Wow, I'm surprised.  Although saddened at a Yankee being in second.

  • bullsh*t

  • Didn't even know there was a Pittsburgh Pirates at all. I never hear anyone talk about them. They must not be very good then lol. No hate though, just an assumption.
  • WHERE...IS...CHASE HEADLEY!?!??!?!?!??!?!

  • Dam i really wanted Kemp to be on the cover!!!

  • Didn't think Buster Posey had a chance but It's kind of a shame. MVP and World Series Champion.

  • Yup Cutch is a good choice. It's just too bad the rest of the smelly pirate hookers suck.

  • Wow, that's a great batting stance... I hope they use a shot like that for the cover.
  • Awesome

  • Really wanted to see Miggy on there but oh well. Congrats to McCutchen.

  • I disagree with this, probably because i live in DC and our team won the best manager and rookie of the year in the same year and broke a record set in 1937 when they were the senators, also a nats player has never been on the cover of a video game.

  • Sad CC didn't win or even Miguel after winning the Triple Crown. This is a joke. Sure, Andrew is great but he plays on a crappy team that does nothing and I don't seem him helping them get further like CC and Miguel do for their teams. Hope they give us the option to print other covers cause this is nearly as bad as when I saw Gonzalez on the cover last year considering I really can't stand the Red Sox.
  • Can't say I enjoy voting for covers.

  • Should've been Miguel Cabrera
