Another series is in the books and this one went the same in the win/loss columns with the Padres taking two out of three. In the last series, Yonder Alonso picked up the MVP honors with 56% of the vote.
For this series, I made a few minor changes to the points. Add a point here, take away a point there, but nothing too drastic.

Who is this series' MVP? Unlike the series with the Mets, there were only a few contenders for the MVP award.
Will it go to Matt Kemp for his contribution in Game 2?
Will Yonder Alonso repeat as series MVP for his game-tying grand slam on Saturday afternoon?
Derek Norris had a good 3 game series for the Padres. Does he steal the honors?
On Friday, Tyson Ross pitched a strong game before the rain wiped away his chances at more points. Should he be the MVP?
