Hold My Log - 55.05 - Guzman Hands Down Top Hitter

Post by 7teen » Thu May 25, 2023 8:23 am

There is very little debate when it comes to who the top hitter award goes to for Portland for the 2054 season. Pedro Guzman turned in a nice bounceback season with his first season in Portland and claimed the honor unanimously from the coaches and front office personnel who vote.

Last season, Guzman hit a team high 40 homeruns and drove in another team high 136 RBI after signing a lucrative free agent deal to join the Lumberjacks. His 97 runs and .979 OPS were also team bests. Not only was his 4.6 WAR the best on the team by at least 2 wins, but it was also Guzman's best WAR season since 2048 when he posted a 5.1 WAR season with Phoenix.

The season also claimed Guzman some league honors as well. He led all Frick League Designated Hitters in several stats as well en route to claiming the Charles Puckett Award given to the league's top hitter at each position. He becomes the 5th Lumberjack hitter to claim a Puckett Award and joins Ernest McBride as the only Lumberjacks hitters to claim the award as a designated hitter. McBride did it on 4 occasions.

To see the other lists of Puckett Award winners, check out the Portland Lumberjacks Hall of Fame and Museum. Admission is half price throughout all of the off-season. We need to do something to drive up our team financials!
