Archives Batter's Box Blue Jay Players Of The Year
I am seizing the reins, and beginning on behalf of Batter's Box what I hope will become an annual tradition.

This is our Blue Jays "Players Of The Year" awards, which will be voted by the fans of the team. One award will be given to a major league player who played with the Jays during the year, and one award will be given to a minor league player who played in the Jays' farm system during the year.

In order to vote, send an e-mail to otnorot55@yahoo.ie with the subject "Players Of The Year". Please vote for one major leaguer and one minor leaguer. In order to make it even easier to follow these instructions, you can click here and your browser should set up your e-mail for you.

The Box braintrust are going to get together to think up a suitable award which will be given to the winning players.

Is there any definition of 'Player of the Year' or is that up to the voter?

How 'bout ...
Player of the Year
Pitcher of the Year

I mean, I'm gonna vote for Tanyon Sturtze either way, but just an idea ...

Nope, "Player of the Year" is it. There are no criteria, but if you want to think of it as "Best Player" then you are welcome to do so.

You can think of it as "Worst Player" and vote for Way Back Wasdin if it makes you happy.

I vote for J.P. Ricciardi as Jays Playa Of The Year. When I first met J.P. I thought, 'Smooth cat -- smooth lookin' cat.' He looks like he was a pimp back in his day. He's a good dude.

Incidentally, we promise not to anything with your e-mails that you wouldn't do.

Even though Bubs is offering me a quarter for each one.

Craigers, there are still 5 games left. Those contests could decide EVERYTHING.

Craigers, there are still 5 games left. Those contests could decide EVERYTHING.

Since Spicol wrote those words, Vernon Wells has set a club record for hits, Roy Halladay for wins, and Carlos Delgado had himself a game for the ages en route to obliterating his own RBI mark.

No excuses now, people. Time to VOTE!
