Jose Ramirez selected man of year, Terry Francona good guy by Cleveland baseball writers chapter

Indians third baseman Jose Ramirez was selected the Bob Feller Man of the Year and manager Terry Francona was chosen as the Frank Gibbons/Steve Olin Good Guy by the Cleveland chapter of the Baseball Writers Association of America.

In addition, John Krepop, who retired in 2016 after serving as the Indians’ press box supervisor for 44 years, will be the first recipient of a special achievement award named in his honor. It was created to recognize career achievement, or dedication and service to the Indians organization. Nominees will be discussed annually, although the award will not necessarily be given out each year.
