Probably Bautista. I see him with a .315/50/115 line with a TON of walks. That should be good enough.
Other than him it's Gonzo.

Reading an SI article and came across these stats:
No player in MLB is seeing a fewer percentage of pitches in the strike zone than is Bautista, at 36.7 percent. Just four players are under 40 percent, none of the others below 39 percent. (At his most dominant, from 2002-2004, Bonds never saw fewer than 40 percent strikes in leading the league each year.) He's adjusted by being that much more selective, dropping to the bottom 15 in pitches offered at (37.2 percent). The 18 homers, the 30 other hits? Picked up on fewer than 300 swings. What Bautista does when he swings gets most of the attention, but it's his willingness to wait for something hittable -- the silences between the roars -- that are making it all possible.
He's even getting less pitches to hit than Bonds in his juicemonkey years. I think he might end up the season with a OBP of over .500

19 homers wins the mvp now?

At this point definitely Bautista, a lot can change though.

i gotta say i do predict JOEY BATTS if he keeps his .450+ OBP and/or .700+ slugging % up
