Good choice, Mauer had a tremendous season and definitely deserved it.

I agree with you... still thought that Texiera would get more than 1 first place vote... Mauer got 27 of 28.

I think the fact that he is catcher made him the over whelming favorite

I saw something today that was pretty awesome.
Mauer is one of just a few to hit .365 or higher with 25 HR and 90 RBI.
The others: Ruth, Gehrig, Dimaggio, and Mantle.
They sometimes mess with those numbers to get someone to 'fit' into a category. But these numbers are all impressive and all the previous guys who accomplished it were absolute legends.
He was certainly deserving ( I thought it might be unanimous).
