		<description>Joe Mauer I new he would get MVP  he deservies it.  I don&#039;t no why you would compare Jetter to Mauer.  Mauer seems like a very nice guy.  I don&#039;t say that about everyone else in the running. 
My opinion.  Kim </description>

		<description>Jeter! He isnt even the best player on that team...Tex gets that honor. Batting .383...Career high 25 jacks, and I bet more are coming. Mauer is the best hitter and catcher in the AL. That is an elite class Mr. Mauer is in, did you all see those names?? Side note: Mauer was recruited to play football, could you imagine Mauer in an NFL jersey. </description>

		<description>Of course we should.  One great player on a team of great players is obviously less valuable individually than one great player on a team with, at most, 3.  Texiera has a HOFer ahead of him and a HOFer (roids pending) behind him in the lineup.  He&#039;s got a starting staff where eight of the nine pitchers who&#039;ve started a game for the yanks this year have an ERA+ over 100.  Mauer has no HOFers anywhere unless Morneau keeps his pace up for another decade or so, and only Carl Pavano has been better than a league average pitcher among all the Twins&#039; starters this year.  Without Mauer, the Twins would be the Nats.  Without Tex, the Yankees would still win the wild card.  Look at the home/road splits.  Look at Tex&#039;s month of April without A-rod.  It&#039;s patently obvious who the best player is, and it&#039;s almost as obvious who&#039;s more valuable.   </description>

		<description>To me, MVP is how important that player is to his team. If you take him off the team, how much worse would that team be? Do postseason-bound teams get bonus point? Sure.  I think Mauer just has to win it this year. It&#039;s been an insane year for him between the offensive stats, the defense, and the way he handles the pitching staff.</description>

		<description>I guess we should then punish Jeter and the rest of Yankees stars because of the talent around them which is immense.  </description>
