Definately nominating rookie closer, Jim St. Vrain. He made the all-star team and has been one of if not THE top closers in the league. Currently he's tied for the league lead with 32 saves."I will calmly wait for my induction to the Baseball Hall of Fame."

--The Dragons had 2 rookies make big contributions this year. OF Duff Cooley played 152 games and posted a 285/325/388 lines, scoring 85 runs for a team that struggled offensively. Henry Theilman went 11-12 with 4 saves (starting the year as our closer before getting promoted to the rotation when both Malarky and Menefee stunk up the joint). He had a 2.65 ERA in 204 IP, completing 17 of 21 games after his promotion to SP. If I had made the change a little earlier maybe we'd be getting ready to face the Barons in round one instead of getting an early start to our offseason.

Homer Smoot, ASY - .304 batting average in 144 games. 71 runs and 75 rbi's. He was a vital cog of Asylums pennant this year. (a slight asterisk homer vote since I made this pick in Ed's absence - regardless he is still deserving)
Carl Lundgren, NO - 15-11 with a 3.19 ERA was the #4 pitcher for the NL champs.
Jim St Vrain, NO - an AllStar and another huge contributer to a pennent winner.Last edited by rmadachik; 11-01-2012, 03:53 PM.Baseball statistics are like a girl in a bikini. They show a lot, but not everything. ~Toby Harrah

I'd like to nominate our rookie Addie Joss. While he didn't get much run support this season ERA and innings pitched makes him a very strong candidate.My dream ballpark dimensions
LF: 400 Feet...Height 37 Feet...LCF: 455 Feet...CF: 542 Feet...Height 35 Feet
RCF: 471 Feet...RF: 400 Feet...Height 60 Feet
Location....San Diego

Addie Joss, and it's not even close.
Smoot, Cooley, St Vrain and Lundgren were good, Thielman was very good - Joss was amazing. I don't even want to nominate anyone else

I would have voted for Joss right off had I known he was a rookie as well. I have edited my ballot, putting Addie Joss first, with Smoot now second and Thielman third. Lundgren gets bumped from the ballot.You see, you spend a good deal of your life gripping a baseball and in the end it turns out that it was the other way around all the time. J. Bouton
