Surprised it's not the "dirty uniform" award.

How would these lineups stack up against our Reds?Originally Posted by dabvu2498
Congrats to Adam for winning this award tonight!
"I tried to play golf, but I found out I wasn't very good." -Joey Votto on his offseason hobby search
An MLB.com reporter asked what one thing Votto couldn’t do. “I can’t skate or play hockey,” Votto said. “Well, I can skate ... but I can’t stop.”
Does Freel have any of these on his mantle?
These days, it is a sin to hustle. It must mean you have no talent.
It's not exctly the MVP award but it's something. Some good players on that list from last year.
For those of you who want to mock Rosales, be reminded that MLB has other awards for things that aren't exactly related to performance. The Fred Hutchinson Award and I believe there is a Roberto Clemente Award as well.
Yeah, but when hustle is your only talent?These days, it is a sin to hustle. It must mean you have no talent.
Uncalled for.
I'm not bitter!
I like the way Adam plays in that he "plays the game the way its supposed to be played". Heart, hustle, scrap.
I just wish he was a better player. Too bad he doesn't have the matching talent.

You're right. He made it to the major leagues because he sprints to his position. No talent whatsoever. Please.
He's no All-Star, but there are a lot of guys in the minors who will never see a major league field.
Congrats to Rosales.
"The players make the manager, it's never the other way." - Sparky Anderson
When I saw this, I knew it would fuel the long-running RedsZone tensions between Cincinnatians' love for West Side blue-collar Pete Rose scrappiness and data-driven win-share talents.
"You like me! You really, really like me!"
"In my day you had musicians who experimented with drugs. Now it's druggies experimenting with music" - Alfred G Clark (circa 1972)
Yes, he does. According to George last night, prior Reds winners include Jerry Hairston Jr., Ryan Freel, and Adam Dunn.
Eric Stratton, Rush Chairman. Damn glad to meet ya.
Now there's a scrappy little dude.
He just doesn't have major league talent.
That's all I'm sayin'.
He's got major league scrap and hustle, but he just doesn't have a major league offensive skillset. His defense is marginal for a major leaguer, IMO.
