The Pittsburgh Pirates announced their Player of the Year and Pitcher of the Year on Thursday morning, capping off three days of minor league awards.
Endy Rodriguez was named as the Player of the Year, an award named after the iconic Honus Wagner. Rodriguez has been picking up a lot of recognition lately for his work, including being named as the South Atlantic League MVP yesterday and he was our Player of the Year as well. In 125 games this season split between Greensboro, Altoona and Indianapolis, the 22-year-old Rodriguez hit .323/.407/.590 with 92 runs, 39 doubles, four triples, 25 homers, 95 RBIs and 60 walks.
