You mean people will pimp against me more than for themselves????? Sure... maybe.

I think so, yea.

I think so, yea.

I've come to expect it.

It's all in good fun anyway.

I've said my piece for the IL awards.

I think without Rojas we might be in a dog fight for the playoffs or worse so I hope my article did him proud. As for Last Call Bayer and Petro won't win, but their 1-2 combo was impressive and will hopefully get some votes.

OK... you guys talked me into it. I added Woodbury to the IL Thread.

I know nobody PIMPS for the JA Wright award.... but this may be the most interesting year depending on what people are looking at.

I figure Matt (Batavia) has to be the favorite because (A) he's a great guy and (B) his team finally broke the seal. But I think there are 5 or 6 really, really strong candidates this year.

Simply put, Gates has been the best rookie hitter in the IL this season. In 3 different months, his OPS has been above .925. Unlike some other rookies, such as Batavia's Rojas, his home park isn't helping his case as he's actually a better hitter away from home. Compare the OPS of the two by home/road splits:

Hmmm...per StatsLab.

Carolina
PFr: 1.00
PFhr: 1.03

Batavia
PFr: .99
PFhr: 1.00

I can't help it the kid plays better in front of his adoring fans. Must be all those great outfield, saving run plays he makes.
