Monday Bird Droppings: It’s Rookie of the Year day

Happy Monday, Camden Chatters. I hope you had a nice fall weekend. If you were relying on the Ravens for a little Sunday happiness, my condolences.

The offseason continues its slow march toward action, but if all goes well tonight will be a big night for the Orioles. Tonight MLB will announce the Rookies of the Year and Gunnar Henderson should win the award for the American League.

Henderson’s offensive and defensive prowess made him not only one of the best rookies in baseball but one of the best players overall. Baseball-Reference.com ranks him as the third-best player in the American League and seventh-best overall with a WAR of 6.
