Not a Dodgers fan, but it is kind of silly to leave Puig off of a three-vote ballot.

It went how it should of, Puig was excellent but Fernandez was that much more excellent and for the whole season.

John Maffei U-T San Diego Fernandez - Miller - Gyorko

 

 

Obviously he took a throw away pick to give the hometown kid a vote while simultaneously gave the Dodgers the finger.

In before someone suggests a Stanton + Fernandez trade.

Ohh no doubt. I don't think Puig should have finished anywhere below 2 on anyone's ballot. I just like watching people get angry over the feeling of entitlement that Puig had this LEGENDARY season and was a runaway rookie of the year. Hanley Ramirez had a better year and played in 20 less games.

Lol at that Jedd Gyorko vote

[CaliAngel]

This makes me smile.

Puig would win in any other year but Fernandez was otherworldy. He was basically the pitcher version of Trout. Comes up and completely dominates the competition.

[Troll Daddy]

Congrats to Fernandez ... hopes he mentions Mathis in his acceptance speech.

statistically fernandez was very good, but puig was a game changer. i don't think it's any coincidence that the dodgers resurgence coincided with puig being called up, and on that alone i would have voted for him. he turned around the dodgers season (not by himself, but he certainly was a big part of it. meanwhile, the marlins finished in 80th place again.).

The marlina went 18-10 in fernandez starts (64%) and 44-90 (33%) in other games.

Fernandez was not very good, he was great, look at the numbers he put up. Puig got called up and the Dodgers went 7-10 their first 17 games with Puig. The resurgence happened because of Ramirez, Puig and the pitching, not just Puig.

Fernandez was almost unhittable.  The guy had a better season than Puig, who himself, had an excellent year.  Fernandez was originally at AA ball and then brought up to the majors and he didnt lose a beat.  This kid is the real deal and is a Cy Young contender for years to come.  It's just a shame he's going to have to toil in the utter uselessness that is the Marlins organization.

If it wasn't for Mathis...

In before a racism allegation as to why Puig didn't win (yes, I know who Fernandez is).

Fernandez: 12-6, 2.19 ERA, .98 WHIP, 9.75 K/9, 3.22 K/BB

 

Yep, Puig got hosed.
