He’s a solid bet to be voted as part of the All-MLB team by the fans, he’s already banked the Hank Aaron Award as well as the NL’s Most Outstanding award by the players themselves. There’s just one big one left and with all of these accolades, you have to think that the MVP award is right around the corner.
On to the links.
