We had this last year in late May, early June and had some interesting picks. So now that we're 7 weeks in who would be leading if you were to pick today and who do you think will win it at the end of the year? Ill give who I think are the top 3 of each. *Who I pick to win at the end of the year.
AL MVP-
1.Pudge
2.Vlad*
3.Beltran
NL MVP-
1.Scott Rolen*
2.Abreu
3.Bonds- I have to pick him dont I?
AL CY Young-
1.Hudson*
2.Schilling
3.Mulder
NL CY Young-
1.Celmens
2.Graves- If he continues close to this pace, he'll win it
3.RJ*
Anyone else care to venture a guess who will win it?

He's carrying that team while Nomar and Trot have been out all year.
OH, and he has stolen a base, too.
He's my pick.
I was wondering the same thing myself Trans. Manny's carried that team so far with those other guys out and his numbers speak for themselves. Add that to the fact that he's on a 1st place team and how he can NOT be mentioned is beyond me.
Pudge is the best defensive catcher in the league and has turned the Tigers from a laughingstock into a mediocre team. (And has stolen more bases, at that.) I think Vlad wins at the end of the season but come on, man, it's not that ridiculous if you look at the numbers.
AL MVP: Carlos Beltran...IF he gets traded and helps a contender to the playoffs...he'll have more than good enough numbers...
NL CY: Clemens
AL CY: Hudson...but don't count out Halladay just yet...
