Cardinals news from a Sabermetric point of view

Twelve Days of Christmas 2010: Day 3

On the third day of Christmas, my true love sent to me

Three clutch men,

Two golden gloves,
And a vote for the finest rookie.

  1. Jaime Garcia received one first-place vote for NL Rookie of the Year and finished third overall, the first time a Cardinal received a first-place vote and finished that high since Albert Pujols won in 2001.
  2. Albert Pujols and Yadier Molina won Gold Gloves in 2010. It was the second of Pujols’s career and the third for Molina.
  3. Three Cardinals received votes for NL Most Valuable Player: Albert Pujols, Matt Holliday and Adam Wainwright.
