Re: Nominations for Monks Baseball End Of The Year Award

AL Rookie of the Year: Dustin Pedroia I actually dont even think it's close. Young is at .289/.317/.409, while Pedroia is at .317/.380/.441

Plus, Pedroia plays a premium defensive position, while Young plays the easiest/most replaceable position. Also, Pedroia ranks as an above-average defender, while Young has a below average score according to baseball prospectus's Fielding Runs Above Average stat. Take a look at Young's numbers again. He did not play nearly as well as people thought he did this year.

Also, Pedroia leads all AL rookies in VORP, by a wide margin, as well as Win Shares and Win probability added
