Season 57 Player Awards
The playoffs are underway and that means it's award voting season! Below are my thoughts on the ballot and my picks for each award. I'll be updating throughout the playoffs as I have time. AL MVP Al Perez (1B) - 55 HR / 1.069 OPS / 3 SB Tony Martin (2B) - 29 HR / 1.027 OPS / 65 SB Will Adkinson (RF) - 41 HR / 1.082 OPS / 40 SB Shouta Wang (3B) - 18 HR / .925 OPS / 69 SB Tommy Mullins (CF) - 36 HR / .890 OPS / 19 SB This list includes 3 players from Albuquerque after a season that saw them put up 71 more Runs than any other team! I think this is really a 3 man race with Wang and Mullins on the outside. Both had excellent seasons, with Wang's 69 SB and 23+ Plays at 3B really standing out, but the top 3 players on this list really stood out. The choice between Perez, Martin, and Adikson is really a matter of what you value. Perez has the classic power numbers, with a league leading 55 HR and 158 RBI. Martin made good on his max contract by putting up a boat load of SB
