   Like I posted earlier, Toronto doesn't really have a leading
choice for MVP.  The team is made up of a lot of very good players
and lot of good pitchers.  The only MVP candidate on the team might
be George Bell (.278, 28HR, 89RBI).   The Jays management realizes
that baseball is a team sport and you need more than just a few
great players to make a great team.
