i'm hoping for Magglio...... Alex is too obvious....a yankee, just got to 500 hrs, blah blah.....Maggs has had an amazing year, a couple fewer RBIs and the most impressive stat (that WILL go overlooked) is that he never went more than 2 games without a hit. alex just belted more hrs. well, you could debate it ad nauseum, but unfortunately 'Arod' will always be first out of anyone's mouth....especially before a Tiger
i'm with Stingray on the Granderson vote....too bad they didn't do just a bit better this year, but that guy is a catalyst and possibly the best "All-Around" player in MLB

looking for Topps 71-72 hi's-62-53-54-55-59, I have these sets started
If anyone thinks it'll be anyone other than Arod, I'll be glad to place a bet with you and take your money I have Magglio and Granderson on my fantasy team, so I've followed them both very closely. Had the Tigers made the playoffs, Magglio would have received a decent support of support, but still nowhere near enough to win. I love Granderson, but he can't hit lefties at all, and he strikes out way too much.
"My father would womanize, he would drink. He would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Sometimes he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy. The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament. Our childhood was typical. Summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring we'd make meat helmets. When we were insolent we were placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds - pretty standard really."

Just wishful thinking on my part, I know that it has to be A-Rod with the season he has had.
It'll be ARod in a runaway. He's hit over .300 all season, 50+ hrs, 150+ rbis & 140 runs scored. He was the only Yankee (outside of Posada) that did anything early in the season. Of course, he can opt-out of his contract at the end of the yr.... funny how players often have career yrs with the chance of signing for BIG $$ at the end of the season.

This year by ARod reminds me of the 1999-00 NBA MVP won by Shaq who had a monster year. Everyone felt that he would be the first unamimous winner in the history of the NBA and he fell one vote short (Fred Hickman of CNN voted for AI) and even the other voters could not explain what this guy was thinking when he filled out his vote. Alex is a no brainer with this historic season but their maybe some Mr Hickman types in the mix.
