TEAM AWARDS

The Douglas Newhouse Award
(Best Positional Player of the year)

DH Royce Hinkle (22)

162 GP, .293 AVG, .828 OPS, 32 HR, 116 RBI, 2.3 WAR

Hell of a debut for the rookie DH. Knocked in the most runs for a Wharram-led Mounties and lead the team in most offensive categories. Hopefully he can continue to produce from the clean-up spot for years to come.

C Mitchell Goater
3B Sergio Mendoza (missed half the damn season but man hell of a year)

I know you're probably shocked that it's not Bessi but you got to remember the first third of the season he was with Long Beach. What an absolute monster season from the closer. Becoming one of 12 relievers in BBA History to finish under 1 ERA is a heck of a statline for a closer, and he also for the second time in three years lead the Frick league in Saves.
