My choices alone, but here they are;
Pitcher of the Year:
LUCAS SIMS (Rome): At the ripe old age of 19 (20 in May), Sims had a steady growth curve through the 2013 season, going 11-3 as a starter 17 starts after moving into the Rome rotation, finishing the season with a 2.62 ERA and 134n strikeouts in 117 innings. Batters managed only a .200 average against him all season.
Position player of the Year:
JOSE PERAZA (Rome): Back at shortstop in 2013 at the age of 19, he grew up and held his own in the full-season SAL. He's hitting .286 with 127 hits, one homer, 47 RBIs, 72 runs scored and 63 stolen bases. The only drawback are his 29 errors.
In Peraza's case especially, his age is a huge factor in this decision. Please speak your piece and I want a full blown debate.
