    A.L. Player of April

    This is for everyday players only.

    Alex Rodriguez- .355, 14 HRs including two walk-off homers and 34 RBI

    Honorable mention- Vlad Guerrero

    I agree, it has to be A-Rod. Even though he had a quiet final week (from the second Boston game on), he was still the best in April. Agreed on Guerrero as an HM too.

    No question it's A-Rod. Unbelievable month for him.

    I'm throwing Ian Kinsler's name out there for honorable mention though.
    His 2nd year in the bigs and he finished the month batting .298 with 9 homeruns, 22 RBI, a .667 slugging percentage, and only struck out 13 times in 84 AB's.
    Integrity can accommodate the inadvertent error and the honest difference of opinion; it cannot accommodate deceit or subordination of principle.

    A-Rod, but Ian Kinsler in 2nd is definitely agreed. He had a huge month.
    I did a lot of good things as a sim league GM.

    Ah, give me something clever to say here.

    Big old "duh" here.

    A-Rod; who is No. 1 in OPS and Runs Created in MLB.
    The Simpson family gathers around, as Homer places Bart's passed test on the fridge.)

    Homer: We're proud of you, boy.

    Bart: Thanks, Dad. But part of this D-minus belongs to God.

    A-Rod.

    Upton, Kinsler deserve HM, but Jim Thome's been a manimal too.

    Thome is quietly off to a great start...I think a lot of people foresaw a downswing for him too.

    Yeah Thome is off to a nice start, but he is on the DL right now too. So, that is a strike against him!
