FB Awards
Hello everyone, this is the Alexandria Awards Masters again, with another presentation of the Franchise Ball Awards! Let us be reminded that these awards are based on performance from Season 102, not Season 103. Let’s get off to the races!
David Ladner MVP Award: Phoenix Beard, 1B
Season 102 Stats: 117-280 (.418), 18 2B, 3 3B, 32 HR, 76 RBI, .846 SLG
Beard decisively had a good season in 102, hitting a solid .418 with 32 bombs as he helped the WINNERS to a 48-12 season.

Season 102 Hitting Stats: 10-45 (.222), 1 2B, 1 3B, 2 HR, 12 RBI, 1 SB, .422 SLG
Hardy was also extremely good in 102, and is one of the few people who was able to strike out over 1 person per inning, which is for some reason very rare on FB. He even did his part as a hitter, driving in 12 runs and finishing with a respectable .708 OPS.

Brannon had a spectacular final season, getting nearly 20 saves and going undefeated over 38 innings of work. In spite of his efforts, the Mavericks only went 37-23.
Apocada-Chapa Rookie of the Year: Andres Flores, CF
Season 102 Stats: 99-278 (.356), 20 2B, 2 3B, 25 HR, 62 RBI, 3 SB, .712 SLG
