With Mauer now having the 2nd best batting average in the majors...I heard some talk on baseball tonight that Jeter is going to be a prime contender for the title.
I still think Mauer has a great chance.

What I'd like to know is, why in the middle of a pennant race, didn't Gardenhire get Mauer's bat in the lineup even as a DH?

Of course Jeter is the prime contender. With only 17 games to go Jeter trails Mauer by just 2 points.

Unfortunately, even though Mauer won it, most of the headlines went to Jeter for not winning it. Some people just don't get the credit that they deserve.

That's probably true. My hat's off to Joe Mauer at least - it's always amazing, and extremely valuable, to have a catcher hit like that. I'm guessing as he matures, he'll develop some more power.
