Matt Kemp says he doesn't believe he should be given the National League MVP award if Ryan Braun is stripped of the title. Braun is appealing a 50-game suspension for a positive performance-enhancing drug test. Kemp finished second to Braun in balloting for the award. "I feel like that would be by default," Kemp said. "I wish I would've won it just by them voting me and me being the MVP. That would be special. But hopefully, I will have the same type of year or even better and win it straight up this year, with us making the playoffs."
