    Agreed. I think it sounds like a great idea as well.

    Congrats to the two Rookies of the Year as well to Tim Lincecum.

    And, may Mr. Score rest in peace.

    Not a problem I have them saved on wordpad so I just add as it goes. I think I got all of them, I excluded the monthly awards and such. For some reason I think I am missing one, so I am going to go through again and double check it. ;)

    EDIT TO ADD: I just posted the "Manager of the year" for both leagues in the above awards post. ;)

    I'm not sure if this is one to be added to the list (Destiny, I'll leave that up to you decided since you took the time to post such a comprehensive list), but Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Jon Lester has been awarded the 2008 Hutch Award. The award, according to the linked article, "is given annually to a Major League player who best exemplifies the honor, courage and dedication of baseball great Fred Hutchinson, both on and off the field." At the site linked above, you can also read more about the award as well as see a list of past recipients. Here's the article posted on the Red Sox website, it has a little more information than the first one.

    Red Sox fan or not, you have to admire Jon Lester for what he was able to overcome and what he's accomplished since then.

    that's the last Silver Slugger Matt'll be getting as a Rockie, they traded him to the Okland A's on Monday (Nov 10th) for Huston Street, Greg Smith (Lefty pitcher) and Carlos Gonzalez (Lefty hitting outfilder).

    sad cuzz that might be the last award Willy'll get as a Rockie, he's on the trading block along with Brian Fuentes who's a Free Agent now & the Rockies are hoping to keep him.

    Heads up NL MVP is Albert Pujols, but I am waiting before updating the list for them to announce the AL MVP, so that it would complete the awards, at least until the TYIB (This Year In Baseball) awards are announced in December.
