Ryan Ludwick. I really hope I see him in a Reds uniform next season.

I guess Chapman, slight edge over Ludwick
Most Valuable Player? Joey Votto
Ryan Hanigan, for me its him hands down. The way he handles the pitching staff is amazing. I don't think it's a coincidence that Homer Bailey started pitching better once Hanigan started catching him!!!
BP, hands down. Put him in the line-up wherever you want, he'll do it and do it well. Crazy good leather at second (if it's not gold glove worthy they should do away with the award)...played all the time!
Mike Costanzo hands down
Really the whole team that was able to win 97 games despite such a terrible strategist running the team. Easily the greatest collection of talent since the 1927 Yankees, maybe even greater. Hall of Famers at every spot on the field, other than the dugout.
LeClure should get some notice for being so consistent this year. The utility guy of the bullpen. He was awesome in the playoffs, as well.

That's right Homey....Like La Russa, Baker did not know how to use RL....I told you guys the minute Lud hit Cincy that it was a MONSTER aquisition. I recall predicting that batting behind Votto he would bat .270, get 30 HR's and 90+ RBI. Very few believed me. But if he had played every day he would have exeeded all those numbers.
Due to Votto's down time, and the fact that JC is a pitcher, I would call it a dead heat between Ludstick and BP.
