        Ted's despising the press cost him an award or two for sure. (A paraphrase here: Once a weak hitting infielder asked Ted why he treated the press so despicably. Ted's reply went something like … if you hit .350, you could treat the press as badly, as well.)

        DiMaggio clearly was the MVP. Yanks were wallowing in third when the streak started, were easily in first when it ended, cruised to the pennant from there.

        DiMaggio had a 9.1 WAR, Williams has a 10.6 WAR, clearly Williams was better. DiMaggio had the better narrative, but Williams was more valuable. Unfortunately, the voters went with the narrative (as they so often did).

        Would the best player not have the most value? If I'm better than you at baseball I would provide more value.. especially in baseball where your teammates don't effect your individual performance to the same degree as other team sports.
