With due respect to Alfonso Soriano who won the AL Player of the Week, how in the world did Justin did not get it. HOW? Did MLB saw the same thing I saw? This can't be right. I am outraged. This just shows the lack of respect Minnesota and small-market teams get. Justin has been raking the ball since coming from an concussion. You would think that would count something. This guy has been homering every game it seems. Hitting home runs is not a very easy to do yet he makes it look easy. How does that not get AL Player of the Week? I am really outraged about this. This is a disgrace. You know if Justin was playing for New York, Boston, or LA, he would be the player of the week because ESPN and the national media would pimp this guy up.
This just goes to show you why I hate ESPN. ESPN never ever talks about the Twins ever and they make it a point to skip them a lot hence why I don't watch SportsCenter or Baseball Tonight. Had ESPN been showing his highlights, MLB would have taken note of that and he would be the player of the week.
This is really sad.
