Congrats! The voting was not nearly as close as many thought.

The same could be said about Cabrera. I think Hamilton deserved it. I also think Cabrera should have been second and Cano third. Wonder how the official vote turned out.
This will be a great story for sportswriters. #1 overall pick to substance abuse and out of baseball and back to glory, on top of the MLB as MVP.

Pretty cool accomplishment, especially considering everything he's been through. If you polled a million people in 2005 asking them who would be the 2010 AL MVP, probably zero of them would have said Josh Hamilton.

With baseball's popularity what it is, out of a million people, I would venture to guess that 25% would struggle to name any player and 50% probably couldn't name anyone other than Bonds, Jeter, McGwire, Sosa, Clemens or ARod.xcantgobackx said:

I do believe that Hamilton is deserving but I also believe that the voting should have been alot closer then that! I know we can't hold it against him in voting but JHAM had some beasts hitting around him and on the other hand Miggy Cabrera put up MVP numbers basically being unprotected for most of the year!
I also have a good feeling baseball writers love Josh because he was an addict and turned his life around and became the player that he is... They should! but just saying he had that most likely working for him too.
I think Miguel deserved the MVP or at the very least deserved to be a much tighter vote, don't get me wrong I love JHAM. Those are just my views on the situation, either way CONGRATS Josh Hamilton!

Truthfully though in the rules of voting that shouldn't matter... I think they make the playoffs possibly without him, that's how good the team was.
But I hear ya
