Thanks HGM. Didn't really go away, just didn't feel like posting much.
Good to see you back.

You know this guy exists that led the league in batting average, on-base percentage and slugging percentage...while playing Gold Glove defense...as a catcher?Quote:

Joe Mauer would be my choice hands down.Quote:

I don't know how anyone could vote against Mauer?! Oh wait! There is always a few!Quote:
