My vote goes to albbla...yes, he finished behind DMB and the Padres in the NL West and the Padres had a tremendous revival of a season - but the Rockies signed 6 FAs in the offseason, and except for Gonzales who was injured all of them performed well. DMB certainly has to get some mention though, not just this year but for the steady turnaround of the Padres he has anchored.
