THE GAME · #1 11-16-2005, 10:54 AM

Pujols, the St. Louis Cardinals' first baseman, received 18 first-place votes and 14 seconds for 378 points in balloting by the Baseball Writers' Association of America. Jones, the Atlanta Braves' center fielder, got 13 firsts, 17 seconds and two thirds for 351 points.

it was about time that Pujols got what he deserved.. every yr he had mvp
numbers.

I agree with you.

Pujols finally won the award!!! The past few years he should have won it as well.

Congrats to Pujols!!!

No argument here, Pujols was most deserving. He has consistently put up great numbers in his short career. Both MVP Awards went to Dominicans this year. How about that??

Albert Pujols is truly a class act that arguably has put together one of the best first five years in recent baseball history.

Pujols is an amzing athlete. On the other hand, you have disgraced cheaters such as Giambi and Raffy who took steroids.

A-Rod and Pujols and Colon. Wow, Dominican power!!!

So Dominicans took the Al mvp, the NL mvp and the cy young.
WOW

4th year in a row a Dominican has won the AL MVP. Also, this is the list of the top 4 finishers in the AL this year:

Alex Rodriguez
David Ortiz
Vladimir Guerrero
Manny Ramirez

not to go off topic but just an observation... in this yr world series there weren't that many hispanics on the teams... astros (mostly white players);
white sox (a few hispanics.... manager, contreras, duke, among others).

Yes, Pujols finally won the MVP. I never hear anyone (in the media) saying that this should have been his 3rd MVP (I believe he finished second 2 other times) because he's twice lost to the steroid bound Bonds!! Few things irk me about sports but this one does. Bonds, at the very least should be stripped of his MVP awards!!

Good going latinos!!
