Tulowitski getting no love!
What about Carlos Gomez, the Mets will never have a Rookie of the Year because they never start the year with a rookie. See David Wright and Jose Reyes.
do strawberry, gooden, matlock, and seaver count?
Matlock doesn’t count because that wasn’t Andy Griffith’s first show.
matlack :)
i missed a letter. you advertise your gonorrhea.
Tulo with another tough break…first the GG, now ROTY. Braun had good offensive numbers, but TT was also a stellar defender in a tougher position and a leader on a team in a playoff race. If I were building my team around one of those players, it would be Tulo, without question…
ummmmmm … Braun only played 113 games. Let me repeat that, 113 GAMES.
I like Tulo, I really do, he helped win my fantasy league with his awesome second half. Braun was unstoppable this year. Check out his prorated 162 games stats for this year, he would have hit 49 HRs and knocked in 139 runs. Yes, I know it’s just prorated and didn’t actually happen, but even if equaled half of his prorated output he still would have blown Tulo out of the water offensively.
Defense, it-s a-no good, but he’ll learn. And Tulo looks too much like captain intangibles playing short, i.e. that flashy BS “jump throw” for that reason alone he should have been denied the gold glove and the rookie of the year awards.
I feel like I am taking Crazy Pills…. Ryan Braun was the most Obvious ROY in years. Tulo is good… Braun is way better
Seriously better.
WHAT? David Wright didn’t win the ROY? He was so much better than these fools!! The media clearly rigged him getting the Gold Glove and Silver Slugger but couldn’t get him this one? What a joke.
I guess Chipper did some better grass roots campaigning this time against DWright.
Wright got robbed. I’m sure he’ll do better in the NL Cy Young and Comeback Player of the Year voting.
Well, Wright DID do more on the mound for the Mets than Mota..
Tulowitzki is cleary a better all-around player than Braun. Not only did he put up great offensive numbers, but he anchored the best defense in history. His teammates also referred to him as the captain of the team. Not bad for a rookie. Should have gotten Gold Glove, should have gotten ROY.
By the way, did anyone notice that Brian Bannister came in 3rd for the AL voting? Burgos was an awesome pickup.
Darn…beat me to that one!
Yeah, let’s not get too carried away with this. Remember these ROYs?
1992 Pat Listach
1993 Tim Salmon
1994 Bob Hamelin and Raul Mondesi
1995 Hideo Nomo and Marty Cordova
1996 Todd Hollandsworth
1998 Ben Grieve
1999 Scott Williamson
2002 Jason Jennings and Eric Hinske
2003 Angel Berroa
2004 Bobby Crosby
For every Piazza, Beltran, Jeter and Pujols, you get at least two of these guys.
TuLo did get ripped off, tho.
nah.
Besides, Braun was easier to spell, these aren’t exactly the smartest people voting..
