5. Albert Pujols, Cardinals.
The St. Louis first baseman finished ninth in the voting last year, ending a remarkable run. Until last year, Pujols' first six years in the league had seen the slugger finish fourth, second, second, third, first and second, respectively, in the NL MVP voting for 2001-06.
Pujols remains a force, but with the Cardinals undergoing major changes to the lineup and Pujols having an elbow issue that could flare up at any time, his MVP chances heading into this season figure to be lessened.
