The 2005 Most Valuable Player Award goes to...

It's the middle of September and the Major League Baseball regular season is drawing to a close. According to the scribes, the contest for Most Valuable Player is between mighty Albert Pujols of the St. Louis Cardinals (cheers, loud applause) and some guy from the Cubs. They've got the right team and a great player in Albert, but if I had my say I'd choose the Red Birds' utlity players who have filled in so well for Scott Rolen, Larry Walker, and Reggie Sanders. John Mabry, Hector Luna, Abraham Nunez, So Taguchi, and John Rodriguez have played inspired baseball, and are a major reason the Birds have run away with the NL Central Division title. These super-subs deserve all the accolades the great St. Louis fans can throw their way.
Now, on to the World Series and avenge last year's loss to Beantown!
