Jose Bautista

Thought to be nothing more than a useful utility man, Bautista had never hit more than 16 homers in a season before 2010. But the 30-year-old journeyman put together a monster season for the Blue Jays: He hit a major-league-leading 54 home runs -- 12 more than No. 2 Albert Pujols -- and had 124 RBIs, third most in the bigs. Bautista finished fourth in the AL MVP voting.
