Jackson

I think Feliz has a brighter future, but Jackson was better this year. But it’s not a huge deal and I don’t think AJax got robbed.

I'm a fan of Jackson too, but

all references to him as AJax should stop.

The entire first initial and three letters of last name nicknames needs to die.

He did...

Jackson was good, but I think Feliz deserved to win.

Jackson and his .900 BABIP

by Judy'sLewinsky on Nov 15, 2010 1:58 PM CST up reply actions

He's a fast dude

who posted a 24.2% LD rate, 1.7% popup rate and 1.77 GB/FB ratio. He was hitting the ball the right way to post a high BABIP; it was not just a matter of luck.

Jackson's defense

Is probably why he deserved to win.

How many votes did Neftali Perez get?

Also, the Newberg is kind of mush-mouthed here

Neftali Feliz has been named the 2010 American League Jackie Robinson Rookie of the Year. He’s the first Rangers rookie to win the award, joining Mike Hargrove, who won in 1974, 14 years before Feliz was born.

Wouldn’t that make him the second Rangers rookie, ole Newby?

He meant

first since Hargrove. Excitement combined with brevity equals confusion.
