1B DAN WEEDEN, ATL.  Round of Applause!

Like every other Divisional Series in 2007, Atlanta went through Pittsburgh with little trouble.  The MVP decision is a little tougher as three players make a great case.  DH Scott Hunter won the Player of the Game in Game 4 and Game 5 but was hitless in the first 3 games.  George "Shameless" Johnson had 2 big Wins and both outings were solid but far from dominant.  1B Dan Weeden was steadily consistent through all 5 games but never had a WOW! moment.  However, Atlanta was able to depend on Weeden for their offensive production, who's making a name for himself as a Postseason player after winning the World Series MVP in 2005.  Weeden did win Player of the Game in Game 2 and got a Hit and RBI/Run in every game of the series.  His totals were 8-19, 5 R, 8 RBI, and 2 HRs including a big go ahead HR in the 3rd inning of Game 2.  Enjoy an ice cold Stroh's beer while sitting and staring at your two Postseason trophies, Dan.
