Awards for Aviators

Despite the Aviators poor season two Wichita players were recognised in the BBA End of Season Awards.

Alex Ramirez

Young Alex Ramirez in his fifth season at the hot corner for the Aviators added to his growing collection of individual trophies by picking up the 2041 BBA JL Yogi Zimmer Diamond Glove Award at 3B, adding that to the one he won in 2040. A range of 2.67, a +5.0 ZR and a def eff of 1.035 were all a bit down on 2040 but still good enough to grab the Glove Award for the second straight year. He also has the 2037 BBA JL Joe Gillstrom Newcomer of the Year, the BBA JL Charles Puckett Golden Bat Award at SS for 2037 & 2039 as well as the 2040 BBA JL Charles Puckett Golden Bat Award at 3B all under lock and key in a cabinet in his den at home. Add to that four All-Star appearances and you can see why he was the BBA’s #15 prospect when he came up in 2037.

Jim Gouzzie

The other young Aviator to pick an award up was 22-yr-old Jim Gouzzie who was the recipient of the 2041 Johnson League Charles Puckett Golden Bat Award at SS, his first major award in the BBA. He has also got a RHML (AAA) RL Platinum Stick Award at 3B though for 2039. His 155 hits, 44 doubles, 23 homers, 82 RBI and a slash line of .288/.340/512 is a sign of the maturing bat in his third BBA season.



I am very proud of these awards and the recognition it brings to the Wichita side. I hope that given Jim & Alex’s age they can bring a few more to Wichita in the coming years and perhaps some of our other youngsters will be inspired by them and bring home their own awards.
