Who's excited
about the announcement of the National League and American League Rookie of the
Year honors tonight?
Me too!
I'm so excited;
I may soon wet my pants.
Sorry about
the above sentence. That's not the kind of thing you write on a respectable baseball
blog.
Ahem.
Ahem.
Anyway, I just
noticed a few minutes ago on Twitter
that, after the announcements have been made, baseball fans – well, anyone
actually – can visit the Baseball Writer's Association
of America website to see exactly how the ballots were cast.
This is a new
thing for the writers, and it'll fun, if nothing else, to see which writers
voted for which players.
(Wouldn't it cool
if you could see how people voted in the presidential election? Oh, wait. I think
we can. I called Facebook.)
The BBWA announcement
show airs at 6 p.m. Eastern on MLB Network.
Here are the
finalists for the Rookie of the Year awards:
American League
Yoenis
Cespedes, Athletics
Yu Darvish, Rangers
Mike Trout, Angels
