As the baseball season winds down here are your candidates for MLB Players of the Year. Voting will take place until the end of the season and it will be on a poll on the side of the blog (www.TheGreatRabbino.com).

TGR has made a decision to not hold voting for the Sandy Koufax Award (best Jewish MLB pitcher) due to the majority poor performances by pitchers this year. We have awarded Craig Breslow the 2010 Sandy Koufax Award.

Below are the nominees for the Hank Greenberg Award ( MLB best Jewish hitter). As of 9/19:

1) Ryan Braun -.307 BA, 22 HRs, 89 RBIs, .361 OBP, .495 SLG

2) Danny Valencia – .339 BA, 4 HRs, 33 RBIs, .379 OBP, .462 SLG

3) Kevin Youkilis – .307 BA, 19 HRs, 62 RBIs, .411 OBP, .564 SLG

4) Ike Davis – .260 BA, 18 HRs, 69 RBIs, .347 OBP, .441 SLG

5) Ian Kinsler – .296 BA, 9 HRs, 45 RBIs, .387 OBP, .429 SLG

Happy Voting!
And Let Us Say…Amen.
