Gerardo Parra, ARI |
Shane Victorino, BOS |
If I had to come up with predictions, I'd say Parra should certainly win (if he doesn't, I say we riot!), Goldschmidt has a good chance, but might lose to Rizzo, and Corbin seems like an outside bet (sadly to say, it'll probably go to Greinke). We've never had more than one winner in a single season before, so if our G-men - Goldie and Gerardo - can be honored, it'd be a first. How many do you think we'll win, and who will they be?
