Happy Tuesday A’s fans! Time to rise and shine everyone.
We are in award season for base Al all. So far we’ve seen Designated Hitter Brent Rooker take the Silver Slugger for the American League, and it was well deserved. Primary catcher Shea Langeliers was nominated for the SS behind the plate but ultimately lost out on that award. Hey, 50% ain’t too bad.
Next we moved on to the Comeback Players of the Year award. While Athletics ran out a young team they didn’t have many candidates for the award, but if Miguel Andujar had played in more than 75 games he could have been a candidate after playing only 66 the previous two years combined.
