Who's Your MVP?

'Joe Mauer - Welcome Back! Mauer was the most clutch hitter on the team as measured by performance with runners on base (RE24), where it wasn't even close, and by WRC+ in high leverage situations (173, tied with Grossman). His high leverage slash = .405/.540/.459, 50 PA. Consistent from May to October. GG defense.'

Mauer clutch? No way. How can he be clutch when he never swings at the first pitch, doesn't hit HR, and never pulls the ball? ;-)

Already cast my vote in a very small margin for Dozier over Buxton. And while it doesn't exist, or count, a special "honorable mention" MVP for Escobar for his overall year, but really stepping and stepping up when Sano went down.
