Listeners to the Viva El Birdos podcast have surely spent the last few days eagerly anticipating the special episode that I hyped near the end of Episode 58. And that special episode will be an awards show in which we will recognize the top rookie, pitcher, and player in the American League, National League, and on the St. Louis Cardinals.
Of course, Heather and I could just create our own ballots, or preview what we predict will happen, but that didn’t seem nearly as fun as opening participation to the VEB community. So we’re leaving the balloting open to you, the VEB readers!
Please vote for some or all of the awards noted below. Balloting will be open until next Saturday, October 15. I fully expect our community awards to yield more palatable results than the ones the BBWAA votes on. Results will be announced on a future VEB Podcast.
