Jason Giambi is a monster in the American League East.

He hasn't been so hot lately in the past week, but this performance definitely helped his statistics.

Giambi's Number Line: 29 HRs, 80 RBIs.
Giambi's Projected Number Line:49 HRs, 135 RBIs.

That is smoking hot (and MVP potential)!

He is batting .252.
He has as much chance of being MVP as I do.

Gotham, Giambi has NOT been forgiven for his steroids use. He was snubbed out of the All Star game ( even though he was in the American League top three for home runs and RBI). And, he has no chance ( he won't even be considered) for the MVP award.

giambi has been forgiven no one talks about it anymore, i belive its because instead of lying after he got caught he bit the bullet admitted it and moved and did his best to forget it

[legend]

Giambi didn't lie to the grand jury and made an apology before the season to the fans last year, even though he could not elaborate for what.

i think everyone saw the giambi apollogy for what it was, he was saying he was sorry to the fans, and hoped the fans could undrstand if he said what he was sorry for he was risking his contract, and that was good enough for the majority of the fans
