                                In the last calender year (May 15 2010-May 15 2011) Jose has 62 HR's..  This is 20 more than the next best HR hitter.
He has to be the best player most ppl know nothing about.

...and this year he is hitting with average.
I think I read where since the ASG last year, he is leading the league in HR and CURTIS GRANDERSON is second!!! That was a bit of a shock to me, but I forgot how many second half HRs Curtis hit, and then this year being 2nd in the league.

Did you mean this?........................and this year he is hitting for Average? Afterall, he did hit 54 HR's last year.

                                When I was filling my All-Star ballot out at the Tribe game on Friday I was sad I couldn't vote for Bautista 3 times for the Home Run Derby.

                                Forget best player that people don't know. He's flat out the best hitter in the league at this time.

                                Crazy to me how he goes from hitting 74 HRs in his first 575 games (.13/game) to hitting now 70 in his last 193 games (.36/game).  Talk about a power surge.

Pitching to him right now is getting near pitching to Bonds during the roids time.
