BB: Player of the Year Candidates

[frank_ezelle]

Since he is on the preseason All-American team and he has won the SCAC Offensive POTY award for the last 2 seasons, Hunter Owen would have to be considered a candidate for the 2009 Player of the Year. 

As with many potential winners, it seems like Hunter's chances of winning will be tied to Millsaps making it to the D3 World Series.  I believe they will have an offense that is similar to the 2006 that was one out away from the WS, the question mark is will they have the pitching to get that far.

I will be acussed of favoring Hopkins, But i cannot not bring to light Todd Emr in this discussion.

Many do not realize that Emr is using his eligeability and staying with the BlueJays.

You can be accused of worse things....and I think you are right about people unaware of Emr's status (although the info that Emr was returning for a fourth season was forwarded to the voters for the Top 25).

By virtue of Todd Emr being listed as a senior last season, his name was not considered for the preseason All-American team.  By the time I learned that he was still in school for his final season it was too late to add his name to the ballot.  I expect that Emr would have easily made the team. 

He will certainly be one to watch in 2009 as a potential player of the year.
