Oh-We-Oh Maaaag-lio

After going 12-21 last week with two homers and five doubles, Magglio Ordonez got voted American League Player of the Week on Monday. It's the seventh time he's won the award and his first with the Tigers.

Say what you will about Magglio- he doesn't play hard enough, his hair is too long, he's overpaid, etc. But right now, he is showing exactly why he can be a force in this league, even if he only has one knee left. If Gary Sheffield continues his turnaround and starts hitting to the level that Mags is right now, the 2-3-4-5 spots in the order are going to be absolute hell for pitchers to get through.
