He deserves it. Great player.

He's tiny, though. How did he hit 20HR's?

Edit: He's not big, but he's not tiny. He just looked that way next to Ben McDonald.

First player in years with 20 HR/20 SB in a season.

No better player this season

Heh. Ken Griffey Jr. was "Ken-fricking-Griffey Jr.) before Benintendi was even born.

Congrats to him. He's a helluva player and really deserves the award.

He definitely put in the work in the areas needed to improve his game and skills on his own during his own time.

They were all talented players that helped mediocre teams overachieve?

3 of 4 were drafted in the first round, so that isn't a common theme. Only DMAC and Hillis made the cover of a video game, so that isn't the common theme. To my knowledge only DMAC has entire entourage of children, so that isn't it. And Hillis is the only one if them to go marginally insane, so that isn't it either.

Why don't you explain it to us with a pie chart or something.
