Actually looking at Badelli and Matsui they were both basically just as inconsitent. Fielding wise Badelli was a bit better with a .989 compared to Matsui's .969

Looking at them a little more I have to think Berroa has the inside edge because he is a SS.

Why does everyone always over look MARK TEIXEIRA. Leading all rookies in homers and has consistantly been getting better, his numbers would have looked a lot better without that first part of April.

shame Blalock had just a few too many AB last year.

holyroller · 09-25-2003, 02:11 AM

I would vote Teixeira over Baldelli, that's for damn sure.

Angel Berroa, Angel Berroa, ANGEL BERROA. This poll is an outrage. We need more Royals fans around this place.

Chill! Thank you. I already said that I should have put Berroa in the poll. I have no problem with write in's.

Yes! Ken Harvey for ROY!!!

Chemo · 09-25-2003, 03:33 AM

Ya im not a big fan of older players becoming ROY's but Matsui IS having the best year so just like Ichiro, I bet he'll get it

draven085 · 09-25-2003, 07:59 AM

Matsui isn't a rookie so his sellout Yankee ass doesn't get my vote. I'd go with Berroa as well.

andjbock · 09-25-2003, 10:47 AM

is blalock not a rookie? i thought he was.

andjbock · 09-25-2003, 10:49 AM

didnt realize he just missed the cut

Gastric ReFlux · 09-25-2003, 10:55 AM

Matsui, nobody had a bigger impact than the one Godzilla made in New York.

you could make a case for gerut though, since he was in the minors at the begining of the season and wasnt even one of the indians biggest prospects. and now he hits 3rd or 4th in the lineup

Gastric ReFlux · 09-25-2003, 11:31 AM

Is Gerut Mothra?

09-25-2003, 09:03 PM

I would vote for Matsui, as I have no qualms voting for players from other professional leagues. However, he didn't have the best season. The only real advantage Matsui has over Berroa is hitting with RISP. Everything swings in Berroa's favor. He also has the highest Total Average of all the ROY candidates, even higher than Gerut, with .794. Gerut is at .786. Matsui is down at .725. Teixiera is at .775. Baldelli is at .698.

streetballer67 · 09-25-2003, 10:22 PM

Matsui, look at those power numbers.

fantom1979 · 09-27-2003, 03:15 AM

Teixeira would get a look for me, 26/84/.263 isnt bad. This is also with my personal judgement that overseas professional players should not be able to win the ROTY.

EDITED: OPS posted were wrong, check a couple of posts down

Just some OPS numbers

Teixeira .842
Gerut .837
Berroa .799
Matsui .788
Baldelli .741

Where did you get your numbers, Teixeira's OPS was never that high the whole season. He's at .817 right now. Or are you using some kind of OPS that's not OBP+SLG?

Teixeira also plays in the best hitters park in the American League. I'd love to have him on my team, but he's not the ROY.
