Buster Posey - ROY???????

[legaleagle92481]

ROY is not about team success so who has better shot at playoffs is irrelevant. The Marlins have done nothing in the past five years and had two ROYs in that time. The As had last years ROY and they stunk. If you go by stats like most do: Buster is a catcher, hits .323 16, 64 with 120 hits in 99 games. Heyward has played 133 games and is an outfielder hitting .285 with 18 hrs, 71 rbis and 138 hits. So in 34 less games Buster has two less homers, 7 less RBIs and 18 less hits while he outhits him by close to 40 points. I can't see the case for Heyward over that.

As hard as it is for me to admit, I think Posey has it wrapped up. Heyward had many bright spots throughout the season, but had his inconsistencies. Even though he missed games due to injury and played through being hurt on several occasions, he just didn't perform as well as Posey.

Ya posey has it locked up. Heyward had a good year, but when posey got called up he was on fire. not to mention how well he is doing in te playoffs and how bad heyward did

[kellsox]

playoffs have absolutely no bearing on regular season awards- all voting is submitted before the playoff start

[Neal]

I believe that Posey will win the award.

I want Posey to win and think he deserves it by far the most but Heyward will win it because it does not factor in playoffs (the voting concluded before they began) and Heyward had much, much more national hype.

Posey should and will win the NL ROY honors as he was the best in the regular season. Heyward will win the Sporting News NL Rookie of the year honors. Heyward did go to the All Star game, but that is not enough.
