| Who do you think has been the biggest surprise so far this season? I voted for Chipper Jones... I know he has been a all star his whole career but batting .400+ this late is incredible to say the least |

| Josh who? Exactly. I voted for Josh Hamilton because he's leading the league in RBI's and HR's, plus he was a below average player last year. |

| I voted Cliff Lee even though he has began to cool down a little. He still has 10 wins and a 2.45 ERA Honorale mention goes to J.D. Drew with a 329, 13 HR's and 43 RBI's. He had a lot of pressure on his shoulders this year with a down season last year and being in baseball. |

| Carlos Quentin because the DBacks completely gave up on him, they shipped him off and got nothing back for him. They were hyped up on him alot last year and was THE top prospect...
Cliff Lee also has to be in there, he sucked last year and now hes arguably the Indians ace
Hamilton wasnt a suprise to me. He was never a below average play lmao...scouts were on his ass like crazy last year, volquez was traded for hamilton so u can see how thats working out for both teams |

| Hamilton was drafted as the most talented player ever to many scouts. Even last year when he was playing i would hear a lot about him |

you clearly know nothing about baseball
yes, he is doing better than most people expected, but he was far from "below average" last year as a rookie
i voted cliff lee (biased i know) but look at this...
leads the AL in ERA and is 10-1 in 13 starts pitching for an anemic indians offense.
in 2007 cliff had a 4-9 record in 16 games and spent much of the season in the minors |

| Edison Volquez is my vote. His performance so far this season is the only reason people are not saying the reds got completely hosed on this deal. |

I know it was. I didn't pick him as the biggest surprise just as an honorable mention. Nobody would've thought he was gunna be hitting 330 with 13 homeruns halfway through the season. |
