I got friends Facebooking me this... Any sources or is anybody else hearing it yet????

Re: Frazier RoY????
 

It won't be announced until the 12th.

Re: Frazier RoY????
 

mlb.com says ROY's announced on November 12th.

Re: Frazier RoY????
 

Okay.. This is the only article I've found which indicates that Wade Miley won it.

Frazier voted NL's Outstanding Rookie, by fellow players (MLB Players Choice Award)

Re: Frazier RoY????
 

Okay, this is what he said he was referring to. Now, back to my previous post, if I read it correctly, though it won't be announced until the 12th, it sounds as if they have already voted on it, and the cat's out of the bag.

Re: Frazier RoY????
 

That article appears to just be for Sporting News. The Baseball Writers Association of America's award is the one that's the official award

Re: Frazier RoY????
 

There are 3 different awards. Frazier won the award voted on by the players. The Sporting News names their own Rookies of the Year which was announced last week. Then the main rookied of the year is voted on by the baseball writers and that will be announced next week.

Re: Frazier RoY????
 

Rather than start a new thread, I thought I'd insert this Joe Poz article about ROY voting and some history that is fascinating. I'll probably link to it when the award is announced tonight.

Re: Frazier RoY????
 

came in 3rd, 60 points behind Miley and 67 behind Harper. Thought he'd be tighter than that.

Re: Frazier RoY????
 

I thought Miley should have had it followed by Harper then Frazier. Frazier had a terrible late August through the rest of the year, but by no means should Harper have gotten it over Miley! JMHO

Re: Frazier RoY????
 

Miley falling apart in September cost him the award.

Re: Frazier RoY????
 

Last impressions may mean a lot in this sort of thing. Harper's September/October was .330/.400/.643

Re: Frazier RoY????
 

Harper has the brightest future, but I still think Frazier should have won overall. Congrats to both kids though, hope to enjoy watching both play for years to come.

Re: Frazier RoY????
 

Harper had a 119 OPS+ and played a lot of center. Frazier had a 115 OPS+ and played corner positions.
