Ummmm.... No. Heyward's average took a crap because he tried to hit every single curve ball in the dirt he saw for about 2 months. His hurt wrist/hand had nothing to do with his complete inability to hold off on every curve ball in the dirt.

IMO it's a close race between Posey and Garcia. Garcia is clearly the best rookie pitcher and his numbers are great. Posey is the best rookie hitter and I give him the edge over Garcia. Especially if he's still flirting with a .350 BA.

After a 4 for 6 night and GW RBI, here's Chris Johnson's stats:
Games: 60
AB: 215
Hits: 25
Total Bases: 73
2B: 14
3B: 2
HR: 6
RBI: 36
BB: 10
IBB: 2
SO: 50
SB: 2
CS: 0
AVG: .340
OBP: .367

And you guys still don't want to give him any respect? I think he deserves to be in the conversation with Posey.

I think he's a talented rookie and deserves some ROY votes, but I still think its posey's to lose. Not sure its as close as you think, but Chris Johnson is up there. There are other good offensive rookies like Colvin and Sanchez, but posey is a catcher and is up there as wellHoustonCollector said:
Oh and i know he won't be in the top 5, but bumgarner has been having a GREAT rookie season.

While he may deserve SOME cosideration, one thing will hurt him...
...at the end of the season, he will have still played less than 100 games this year. Outside of Ryan Howard (at quick glance) no one has won the ROY in the past 30+ years when playing less than 100 games. And Howard won it because there were hardly any other contenders that year, and he hit 22 HR's in 88 games. While he's putting up good numbers, I think more consideration will be given to players who've been doing it longer this season (ie. Heyward, Posey).

ha....ha...i said he's not gonna get any votes, and i'm not voting for bumgarner at all, but since everyone been saying players should get some recognition or having a good year why not throw out bumgarner who in other years would have a legit chance. I never said i voted or think he deserves it over any of the players mentioned in this thread...RANGERS25 said:darocker80 said:I think he's a talented rookie and deserves some ROY votes, but I still think its posey's to lose.

While he hasn't been around long enough to get serious consideration for ROY, Logan Morrison has been a tremendous addition for the Marlins, making an immediate impact. He currently is tied for the longest on-base streak in the Majors this year at 42 games (could take sole possession by getting on base tonight).
Looks like Posey will win the award. I put money on Jason Heyward and Mike Stanton to be the best two players from this rookie class in the long run though.

I was considering LoMo, but he hasn't been around for long enough. What he has done is mighty impressive though, I have a feeling Posey would challenge Stanton and Heyward as the 2 best players in the long run as he is a catcher and would be more valuable than an outfielder.ALL_THE_HYPE said:

Heyward is 4th in the entire league in WPA and 6th in +WPA...but Posey plays catcher so he gets the nod.

Yes I'm a homer but I just don't see how it's not Posey. He doesn't hit that many HR but I have yet to seem him look bad at the plate. Heyward swings at every curve ball in the dirt. Posey is a better defensive catcher than Heyward is an outfielder.
