I don't have an awards ballot this year, the first time I've been shut out two straight years since the BBWAA begrudgingly admitted me in 2009, but that does mean I get to talk about how I'd vote for all six player awards now rather than waiting until November to reveal one of them. Don't ask me about the Manager of the Year award; I have become even more convinced over time that we can't tease out a good manager's contributions from those of his players.
