The 2019 Roberto Clemente Award winner will be announced later this month and Cleveland Indians fans have a nominee in Carlos Carrasco.
On a side note, picking one winner for this award was always a bit silly to me. It would make more sense to just award every team’s nominee. Ranking good deeds is a bit odd, but the intent of the award is still great.
Carrasco’s list of good deeds goes on and on. His section on the Clemente Award website lists things such as:
Carlos traveled to Africa, distributing shoes, shirts and backpacks to underprivileged children and donating over $70,000 to families in need.
