According the results, Hanley is the heir apparent to the Albert Pujols award. So when Pujols starts his decline around the age of 80, Hanley is the next in line.
GameFish and I both listed Pujols first and Hanley second. Neither one of us can remember who we voted for after that. Big surprise.
Next year we are going to invest in a pencil, a piece of paper and actually write our votes down, assuming we remember to do that. And judging from our memories, I wouldn't bet the farm on that happening.
Anyways that ends the offseason awards as voted on by the baseball bloggers of the SB Nation. So let the offseason blogging truly begin. Or to put it another way, get ready for a whole lot of Marlins Crap posts.
