Further to my earlier comments today on the post season awards, the following is the announced schedule for all of the major awards (both leagues).
Beginning with Monday, November 11 (Veterans Day as well): Rookie of the Year. Wednesday, November 13: Cy Young. Thursday, November 14: MVP. The BBWAA, the association of baseball writers who vote for the awards announced their three finalists in each category, and none of them is with the Sox. As previously announced in this blog, the only Sox nominee for an award that has been announced by the BBWAA is Manager of the Year, with Sox manager John Farrell among the three nominees.
I haven't yet seen a date or announced finalists for Exec of the Year, but it would seem very logical that Sox GM Ben Cherington should get strong consideration based on the team he assembled in the off-season, as well as picking up Jake Peavey at the trade deadline to help the Sox get to their final positions as (in chronological order): AL East Division Champ; AL Champ; and World Series Champ.
