Blue Jays 2015 Year End Awards: Rookie of the Year

The next prize in the Jays Journal 2015 Year End Awards is being awarded for Rookie of the Year. Webster’s Dictionary defines “Rookie” as “recruit” or “novice.” Very concise, Webster’s. Also incorrect in regards to the choices in this crop as there were some quality candidates this year that contributed to the success of the Blue Jays with skills beyond mere novices. Most of the names for consideration didn’t come with the sort of fanfare that accompanied Aaron Sanchez or Mississauga-native Dalton Pompey through their rises to the big leagues, but they performed just as well, if not better.
