Today we continue the IPI’s year end awards with the announcement of the
Comeback Player of the Year. This award goes to the player who came back
from a rough 2010 season – be it due to injury or performance – and put up
a very good 2011 season.
Here are the 2011 Tony Awards so far:
Rookie of the Year: Cody Allen (RHP)
Defensive Player of the Year: Kyle Bellows (3B)
Biggest Disappointment: Nick Weglarz (OF)
Biggest Breakthrough: Elvis Araujo (LHP)
Reliever of the Year: Chen-Chang Lee (RHP)
Again, these awards are simply for fun to hand out at the end of the year.
Also, the Cleveland Indians in no way whatsoever had any input in these
awards.
Onto the nominees…

And the Tony Award goes to…Beau Mills
Compared to previous years the Indians did not have as many players have big
bounce back seasons. Whether or not this is a good or bad thing depends on
your outlook of things, but I think most people are in agreement that Mills’
resurgence this season was great to see and no doubt was the best comeback
in the system.
While a lot of people will say that Mills just benefitted this season because
of a third year in Double-A, that is untrue as he moved up to Triple-A for
the first time in his career and more than held his own hitting .269 with 7
HR, 18 RBI and .822 OPS in 35 games. He also hit .308 with 0 HR, 4 RBI and
.842 OPS in 7 playoff games.
Mills missed the first two months of the season with an Achilles injury but
the time away really seemed to help him get more focused. Not that he lacked
focus before, but the past two years his entire approach at the plate lacked
much consistency. When he returned this season he looked like the Beau Mills
of old. In fact, he may be better than the Mills of old.
First off, the power returned this season. After mashing 58 extra base hits
including 21 homers in 2008 at High-A Kinston, his extra bat hit production
dipped significantly the last two seasons where he had just 48 extra base
hits in 2009 at Akron and 37 extra base hits in 2010 at Akron. This year he
had 41 extra base hits, though he did that in just 391 plate appearances
covering 96 games because he missed the first two months of the season with
the Achilles injury. He averaged 530 plate appearances from 2008-2010, so if
he would have had that many plate appearances this season he would have
projected out to 56 extra base hits this year. In fact, more easily stated,
his .513 slugging percentage this year was a career best and much better than
the .417 slugging percentage in 2009 and .377 slugging percentage in 2010.
Secondly, Mills showed his best plate discipline to date during his time with
the Indians. Back in 2008 in his MVP season at Kinston he was striking out
once every 4.6 at bats and walking once every 8.9 at bats, but since then he
has worked to get better at striking out less and walking more. Since 2008
his strikeout rate has decreased each year as he had struck out once every
5.4 at bats in 2009, once every 6.0 at bats in 2010, and once every 6.6 at
bats this season. The walk rate has also gotten better and after it
nosedived in 2009 where he walked once every 16.6 at bats he has been around
once every ten at bats the last two seasons.
The discipline changes showed last year but the numbers were not there, but
this season it all seemed to come together for Mills. With everything coming
together the power and performance also returned. With the nice bounce back
season he is now back in the discussion as a potential big league option at
first base for the Indians, potentially sometime next year. He may never be
an every day player in the big leagues or reach the potential many thought he
could when he was a first round pick in 2007, but it now looks that his
dreams of making the big leagues look very real.

很好...看來Mills有一點救回來的跡象了...
09和10完全不知道在打三小朋友...
不過09以後他再也沒守過三壘了，1B/DH常駐，
這也代表他要上Big League的話是要和LaPorta、Santana分享位置...
請自求多福。
但以他24歲的年紀還是可以放一些些的期待就是了。

有人復活當然就代表著有人被傳染到衰運了。
這幾年一直很穩的Nick Weglarz在春訓時膝蓋就受了重傷，
好不容易復出後長打竟然完全消失，
只在Akron打出.179/.360/.306。
當然，你注意到了，他的選球眼還在，
就期待他明年能夠找回他長打的感覺吧。
