Veteran Cardinals righthander Adam Wainwright has been voted one of the three nominees for the Marvin Miller Award, in balloting for the Players’ Choice Awards, done by the players last month.
The winner of that award will be announced next Thursday during the World Series in Arlington, Texas as will the winners of the Player of the Year and awards for pitchers, players, rookies and comeback players in both leagues.
Wainwright, who has been with the Cardinals since 2005 and involved in charitable endeavors for most of those years, is a Miller Award finalist along with former Cardinals outfielder Jason Heyward and Minnesota designated hitter Nelson Cruz.
