I only hope Pedoria doesn't win the AL Rookie .. that thing is just like the Heisman.. it's cursed.
AL MOY .. well that would be Francona

ROY I think should be Garko. But he misses by 36 AB. if he had just had 149 AB last year instead of 185 he would be eligible..... unfortunately....
Cy Young I can see Sabathia and Carmona going 1 and 3 in voting.
It won't be Francona.... he was expected to win. If anything the Bosox and he haven't lived up to what they should have done. If he wins, it is solely because he is from Boston and not how he ran the team.
MOY I see Wedge, anyone thinking the Indians would have the second best record in the Majors early on, was either smoking something back then or is lying now. Wedge and Shapiro both built this team and have gotten the best out of each player.
I see Shapiro getting executive/GM of the year.
Of course it all depends on how far the Tribe goes, but come on, Carmona and CC have had great fucking years and there isn't a better 1-2 combo in baseball. Hell, you add Westbrook and Byrd from the All star break you have one of the best and deepest pitching staffs since the mid '90's Braves.
Then of course the Indians do better than the Braves because of the offense (90's ATL had no fucking offense to save their ass.... that's why they only could win 1 WS).
The bad thing about all this is IF the Indians go all the way and win the WS... I see Sabathia gone to FA in '09, if not by trading deadline next year. However, if the Indians advance but not that far, I see Sabathia re-signing because he wants a ring and to play for a winning team more than anything.
