I'm saying Troy Glaus, and that's a good thing, because it's going to take a serious mother****** of a performance to outdo V-Dub and the Big Hurt this year. The spanners in the works there are Rios and Wells - if Rios consolidates his step up he might get 90 extra base hits, and if Vernon Wells has a motivated, focused, disciplined "contract year" he'll be the MVP.
The Big Hurt, if he can keep body and soul intact for another season. Thomas should see a lot of good (read: crushable) pitches batting cleanup in this lineup.
I voted Rios, although any of the candidates could do it. Adam Lind has no votes, but he's quite capable of continuing his growth and putting up a 900 OPS in half a season or so especially if he is platooned.
I'm surpirsed Thomas took this pole. It'd be cool if he rocked 50 homers in the Rogers Centre. Hopefully he stays healthy. I picked Rios, who could put up monster numbers across the board. However, Wells could easily do it with 40 homers to earn that contract.
I voted for Rios because if he beats out Thomas, Glaus and Wells for OPS then (unless injuries have occured...) we are in the post-season! AND, it could happen!
