CWSGuy406 Posted November 6, 2007 Share Posted November 6, 2007 Not a whole lot of glaring omissions like last year leaving out Adam Everett. These actually look halfway decent and deserved, except for Hunter who is still getting by on reputation. Either Coco Crisp or Granderson would've been better choices.

Balta1701 Posted November 6, 2007 Share Posted November 6, 2007 So that's Johan's lifetime achievement pitching award? You win enough Cy Youngs, you graduate to the gold glove? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knightni Posted November 6, 2007 Share Posted November 6, 2007 QUOTE(Kalapse @ Nov 6, 2007 -> 04:38 PM) GRINDER GOD wins his first He has found favor in the eyes of the curs-ed media. Since he has won, he is no longer a grinder. Grinder rule #235: Grinders don't receive Gold Gloves, only Gold Stitches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, that might say something more about how bad Braun is than how good Tulo is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalapse Posted November 9, 2007 Author Share Posted November 9, 2007 The Silver Slugger Award winners were announced today. C Russell Martin 1B Prince Fielder 2B Chase Utley SS Jimmy Rollins 3B David Wright OF Carlos Beltran OF Matt Holliday OF Carlos Lee P Micah Owings C Jorge Posada 1B Carlos Pena 2B Placido Polanco SS Derek Jeter 3B Alex Rodriguez OF Vladimir Guerrero OF Ichiro Suzuki OF Magglio Ordonez DH David Ortiz. Jimmy Rollins over Hanley Ramirez is a joke. It's almost as bad as Alex Rodriguez losing out to a vastly inferior player in 2006. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
