My National League MVP ballot
Seems like I had a difference of opinion on the top spot. But I figured that if a team had two worthy MVP candidates in the top 5, it would preclude one from a No. 1 vote by definition of "most valuable." I also had Braun at No. 2, so it's not like he didn't deserve the award, obviously.
1. Matt Kemp
2. Ryan Braun
3. Justin Upton
4. Albert Pujols
5. Prince Fielder
6. Troy Tulowitzki
7. Joey Votto
8. Jose Reyes
9. Clayton Kershaw
10. Lance Berkman
