Eh, the Rolaids Relief award in real life is done by a statistical formula, but I suppose we can make our own to be voted upon.Quote:

You could probably declare this one right now. Even if they tank (doesn't look likely, but the Crawford injury is scary), there's no way Joe Maddon doesn't win this award, simply for giving them their first winning season.Quote:

Fan Favourite Player?
Minor Leaguer of the year?
Play of the Year?
Moment of the Year?
Game of the Year?
Comeback Player of the Year?
Just throwing anything I think of out there.
I'm trying to stick to the real-life awards that are fairly major, and strictly in the majors. I'll add Comeback Player.
How about maybe an "All First Team" type of thing?
How about the RedsoxRockies player of the year award?
The Metsguy234 Award- Awarded annually to every player named John Maine.
*sigh*
you can't be suprised about this turn of eventsQuote:

How about the Edgar Martinez Award (Best DH)
The DH has a Silver Slugger.Quote:

David Ortiz had won it for the past 5 years but someone might be able to take him this year. (Jose Vidro :D)
It's completely redundant with the Silver Slugger award. Different organizations give out the awards in real life, which is why there are sometimes multiples awards for the same exact thing. For our purposes, since we're not actually handing out any hardware, having two votes for the same thing is unnecessary.
