1973 ROY's announced
Denver's Josh Schaeffer came in a strong second in the MGL Rookie of the Year voting but that honor went instead to Phoenix' third baseman Kyle Larsen. (Many in the Denver baseball community felt that Schaeffer was robbed as his WAR of 3.3 exceeded Larsen's 2.8 by a good margin in just a little over 20 fewer plate appearances. Likely the difference, in terms of national recognition, was Larsen hitting 16 homers to Schaeffer's 6.) Former Brewer Jose Careaga finished third.
No surprises in the SJL. In spite of playing on a 110 loss team, Pittsburgh right fielder Bill Winchester had a rookie campaign for the ages.
