IBWAA

The BBWAA and IBWAA agreed on the NL win, place and show. In the AL, the two organizations agreed on the winner, but picked two different people for second and third place. Jimenez impressed with his power, especially on the road. I don’t quite see what was that impressive about Guerrero, however. His .272/.339/.433 slash line is okay for a rookie, but doesn’t stand out. I would say this is one time the IBWAA underperformed the BBWAA.
