So somebody on another forum just asked
Can Nate Shierholtz (sic) bring home the ROY this year? I see him being this year’s jacoby elsbury great second half

I replied with :

No chance.

After 4 unsuccessful campaigns, this is finally the year that Edinson Volquez take home the rookie of the year award. His finished fourth in 2008, the highest finish in his career, including 3 second place votes.

Volquez has been sidelined by an injury this season, but in 9 starts, the big right hander is 4-2 with an impressive 8.52 K/9 and a 4.35 ERA.

Am I a bad person?
