FGM 2010 Playoffs, Regular Season Review

[Colby]

Congrats Rob. Hopefully we can get all 30 GMs to be active all year. It got a little choppy during Free Agency last year. Congrats also to Daniel, Kent, and Paul for the rest of the league recognizing their solid GM seasons. And kudos to MJ for taking the title home. I was among the many who thought it was the Brewers title to lose.


So do we vote for MVPs, ROYs, and Cy Youngs now?

Look at the record book... all of that is there based on our scoring system.

Thanks to all for the votes, there were many deserving GMs and ultimately the Dodgers won the prize we all want.  I hope the A's are built to compete in the future as well.

Congrats to Robert Miller whose A's bring in the GM of the Year award.  Most people voted for him based on his quick turn-around of a team that once had no offense and still has very little cap room.

Great stuff Colby, and congrats MJ!  LA is a team to be reckoned with for years to come.

Are the Dodgers your vote for GM of the Year?

I am still waiting on some more votes for GM of the Year.  I will allow voting to continue until the end of the draft.  Also,  I have posted the season awards in the record book.  Below is a copy for all of you to enjoy.  Just admire how our scoring system has correctly identified the Cy Young winners and the rookies of the year.  McCutchen barely missed out to Heyward and Austin Jackson trailed both of them in the NL.  Jose Bautista proved his worth not just with his bat but with his glove (something no one ever doubted him).  Familiar names from the past jump into the Gold Glove awards with Pierre and Eckstein (whose bat was horrible this year). Plenty of repeat names from last year such as Mauer, Pujols, McCann, Choo, and Wells.

Using the official scoring system and what teams the players were with at the end of the season, the following players have won these awards.  Fantasy points are noted in parenthesis.
