Manny isn't having the year Ortiz is,

but he should merit some consideration if he has his typical year. He usually gets the shaft because he won't cooperate with the writers though. He has carefully crafted his persona so he doesn't need to, he can just be "Manny".

Anyone who leads the league in HR and RBI and his team is in first place or wins the wildcard should be a top vote getter IMHO.
