			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Baseball Bloggers Alliance has announced the winners of three major awards following the 2009 season.  The last remaining award is the most valuable player in each league.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Although <em>Tigers Tracks</em> was not able to cast an official ballot in the first three polls, I will be submitting my MVP vote for the American League.  Much thanks to Joe Dexter from <a href="http://motorcitybengals.com"><em>Motor City Bengals</em></a> for making this happen.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>As per voting guidelines, I will only be voting in the league that I cover, so this is an AL only ballot.  Voting will be finished by Monday, October 26, and the winners will be announced via press release on Tuesday, October 27.  You can find more information about the BBA by heading over to their <a href="http://baseballbloggersalliance.com/home/">website</a>, you can view a complete list of winners and ballots <a href="http://baseballbloggersalliance.com/home/bba-awards/">here</a>.</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>10- Bobby Abreu </strong>(RF, LAA)- Abreu had a fantastic season in 2009.  He combined his usual solid average (.293) with another fine OBP (.390).  His defense in the outfield was solidly below average in right field, but better than he has been in the past.  Abreu knocked in better than 100 runs while stealing 30 bags in 38 tries.</p>
