Yankees outfielder Curtis Granderson did not win AL MVP, but a former teammate did.With a 24-5 record and 2.40 ERA you're not going to find any complaints about this award, even if he already won the Cy Young.
Tigers ace Justin Verlander won the award on Monday and became the first pitcher to earn the honor since Oakland's Dennis Eckersley won in 1992 and the first starter since Boston's Roger Clemens in 1986.
Granderson, whom the Yankees acquired from Detroit after the 2009 season, finished fourth in the voting...
...Red Sox center fielder Jacoby Ellsbury was second with 242, Bautista third with 231, Granderson followed with 215, and Verlander's Tigers teammate Miguel Cabrera came in fifth with 193 points.
