Who's going to win the AL MVP??
I think it will be a close race between Joe Mauer and Dustin Pedroia, with a Sox-fan nod going to Pedroia.

I'm as far from a RedSox fan as there is, but I give the nod to Pedroia - he had an awesome year.
While this true, your teams record does factor in. How would you feel about Miguel Cabrera winning the AL MVP (he wont)? His numbers were as good or better than anyone's this season. First in HR's ,second or third in RBI's, and he hit over .300. BUT, he played for an extremely under-achieving team (Tigers). If it's just about the numbers, I've made a good argument .
I am VERY, VERY, VERY disappointed that KRod got nothing for the season he had with the Angels.
Well Mariano Rivera has never won an MVP or Cy, and he has had years that were just as good as Krod's this year. Closers just don't get recognition in post season awards.
For God's sake, he had a record 62 saves last season and led the Angels to a 100 win season.
Eric Gagne won the 2003 CY for the Dodgers.
This is true. A shame K-Rod didn't win this award after shattering the save record.
Even sadder, relievers don't get the cred even later on in life. To date, there are only 5 relievers voted into the Hall-of-Fame!
Yes. Eck did it in '92.
*EDIT: Eck was actually the Cy Young winner AND the AL's MVP that year! Wow!
CONGRATS TO DUSTIN!
Now that I have had my "homer moment"...
Sincere congratulations to Dustin in winning the AL MVP. He is quite a player and a name we are going to be saying and hearing for a long, long time when awards are handed out like Sizemore and Granderson.
And congrats to our loyal Boston Red Sox man, Bill. I am sure he is VERY pleased with the choice.

Well said. Congrat's Dustin. You pesky little SOB.
That's right! He broke up John Lackey's No-No very late in the game this past season.
I believe if it weren't for the great season Cliff Lee had, that K-Rod would have received the Cy.
