BBWAA Awards

The Baseball Writers Association of America awards announcements begin today and first up is Rookie of the Year for the NL and AL.

The announcement comes at 2:00 p.m.

And the Marlins have a dog in the hunt.

The folks at ESPN has made their picks and they ended up as follows.

VOTING TOTALS: Coghlan (12), Tommy Hanson (3), Andrew McCutchen (3), J.A. Happ (1), Garrett Jones (1).

Of course, they were only selecting the winner of the award which means down the ballot scores didn't count. Not that it would have much of a difference with Coghlan getting so many first place votes. Click on the link to see who voted for whom.

But all of that doesn't matter, what does matter is the announcement of the vote in a few hours and whether or not the Marlins have their third Rookie of the Year in franchise history.

Stay tuned.
