 | Silver Slugger Awards were determined by a vote of MLB managers and coaches who selected the opposing players they felt were the best offensive producers at each position in the American and National Leagues. |
 | While the list of winners had some carryover from 2005, including left fielder Manny Ramirez and designated hitter David Ortiz of the Boston Red Sox, there were 13 first-time recipients among the 18 selections. |
 | The under-25 age group winners included 24-year-old New York Yankees second baseman Robinson Cano, who batted.342, hit 15 home runs and drove in 78 runs during his second full MLB season; 23-year-old New York Mets shortstop Jose Reyes (.300/19/81) and Atlanta Braves catcher Brian McCann, the baby of the '06 Silver Sluggers at age 22. |
