Guerrero named MVP
Vlad receives 21 of 28 first-place votes. Sheffield second with five, Ramirez and Ortiz split final two.
Guerrero second Angel to be named AL MVP (Don Baylor, 1979).
UPDATE:More from MLB.com, ESPN.
UPDATE: AL MVP Top Ten:
- Vladimir Guerrero (ANA)
- Gary Sheffield (NYY)
- Manny Ramirez (BOS)
- David Ortiz (BOS)
- Miguel Tejada (BAL)
- Johan Santana (MIN)
- Ichiro Suzuki (SEA)
- Michael Young (TEX)
- Mariano Rivera (NYY)
- Ivan Rodriguez (DET)
FIRST THOUGHTS: How is it possible that Vlad earned the same percentage of first place votes (75%) as did Barry Bonds? You can't tell me he was as equally dominate as Bonds this season.
And why no love for Manny Ramirez (one first place vote)? I would have expected a much closer race, with Guerrero barely edging out Ramirez.
