My ballot:

  1. Albert Pujols
  2. Hanley Ramirez
  3. Chase Utley
  4. Pablo Sandoval
  5. Prince Fielder
  6. Troy Tulowitski
  7. Adrian Gonzalez
  8. Tim Lincecum
  9. Adam Wainwright
  10. Chris Carpenter

The last three slots were my way of saying, "Hey, pitchers should contend too. Just, uh, not on my ballot." Obvious homerism in play with my Sandoval vote, especially since I didn't even include Ryan Zimmerman on my ballot. I'm pretty sure there's no defensive difference between Sandoval and Zimmerman, so I'm not too regretful. Ahem.

Hey, it's better than a fourth-place vote for Todd Helton or second-place vote for Joey Votto, at least.
