BASAs: Midfielder of the Year

1st 2nd 3rd Points 1 Christian Gomez 15 75 2 Dwayne De Rosario 12 1 37 3 Amado Guevara 2 6 4 Clint Dempsey 1 2 5 5 Landon Donovan 2 2 5 Andy Dorman 2 2 5 Juan Pablo Garcia 2 2 8 Chris Armas 1 1 8 Ricardo Clark 1 1 8 Terry Cooke 1 1 8 Ivan Guerrero 1 1 8 Justin Mapp 1 1 8 Ronnie O'Brien 1 1 (5-3-1 scoring system) The very first unanimous BASA, and well deserved at that. Second place was also no contest, and the rest were left to fight for whatever scraps remained. Even though it's just meager support, Guevara doesn't deserve the third place spot. He was much better last year. There really wasn't a clear third choice and this vote reflects that. The top two switched places from last year, where De Rosario won and Gomez was second (tied with Shalrie Joseph). BTW, MLS this year and last year now uses "De Rosario" instead of DeRosario. I wonder if they just screwed up and didn't change it for a while (probably).
