There weren’t any true standout performances yesterday, so I’ll go with Daniel Murphy of the Mets, who had four hits last night.
Standings, as usual, under the jump:

MVP of Yesterday (August 27, 2013): Shane Victorino
Whoops! A bit late today again…
But anyway, the MVP of Yesterday is Shane Victorino, who had a career night against the Orioles with two home runs, seven RBIs and scoring himself four times. It’s his second MVP.
Standings, as usual, under the jump:
MVP of Yesterday (August 26, 2013): Chris Carter
Chris Carter of the Athletics had 2 HR and 4 RBI yesterday, good enough for him to be the MVP of Yesterday.
It’s his second of the year, as you will see after the jump:
HUMOR: The Reaction to Matt Harvey’s Injury
Matt Harvey has a UCL injury and will miss the rest of the season and probably longer, since he will likely have to undergo TJ Surgery. Upon seeing some of the online reaction to this, I believe it can be summed up by clicking here. Note that certain parts of that reaction are not-safe-for-work.
As a fan of baseball and great pitching, I agree with the above assessment.
MVP of Yesterday (August 25, 2013): Miguel Cabrera
Much like how people keep hitting themselves when you ask them to “stop hitting yourself”, pitchers continue to pitch to Miguel Cabrera despite everyone saying that they really shouldn’t. Oh, sure, there’s Prince Fielder right behind him, but, well, you have to wonder if Miguel Cabrera is getting so good that it’s now perhaps a better idea to just risk Prince Fielder beating you. Take yesterday, for example, where Miguel Cabrera went 3-4 with a HR, 2 RBIs and a walk.
It’s his sixth total MVP of Yesterday, as you can see after the jump:
MVP of Yesterday (August 24, 2013): Jose Fernandez
Jose Fernandez is going to make the question of NL Rookie of the Year pretty tough, as he again had an excellent outing yesterday, going 7 innings with 8 Ks and just 4 hits given up. It’s his third MVP this season.

MVP of Yesterday (Aug. 23, 2013): Adam Wainwright
Adam Wainwright had a complete game and gave up just one earned run while striking out nine yesterday, and also had an RBI, leading to him being the MVP of Yesterday.
It’s his fourth of the year, and you can see the standings after the jump:
“The Domer”
Do you wish you could have a bag made out of the old Metrodome roof? Well, you can now!
MVP of Yesterday (August 22, 2013): Clayon Kershaw
Clayton Kershaw gave another inhumanly good 8-inning shutout performance yesterday, and also got a hit and an RBI in the Dodgers’ win yesterday. So he’s the MVP of Yesterday. Again. It’s his third time this season.
