It's Youkilis or Morneau, and I really think that Youk's glove gives him the edge.
I'd vote for Youkilis.

Nope. Kinsler is clearly the best in 2008; Roberts and Polanco are probably a little ahead of Pedroia.
I'd vote for Pedroia, though: Kinsler has demonstrated over a couple of seasons that he isn't a perennial All Star, while the better-fielding Pedroia might be. That may be home-team bias.

Nope. Mauer is clearly best in 2008; Pierzynski and Laird are probably ahead of Tek.
I'd vote for Mauer.
