Copper Gloves: Wright Cole, Andy Orr, Carlo Quinonez, Jeff Wisniewski, Craig Wright
Copper Gloves, the Red-Legged Superbas version of the Gold Glove awards, are given to two outfielders, two infielders, and an additional player from any position that exhibited “defensive brilliance” during the course of the season. The Superbas may not have scored many runs, but their defense at times was stellar, thanks to these guys. Infielders Andy and Jeff, outfielders Wright and Craig, and pitcher Carlo did their best to keep the Superbas within striking distance, and it showed. Bravo.
Lifetime Achievement: Ted Bayham
We only know one thing for sure: we could not have done any of this without Ted. (Money, money, money… money.) And, needless to say, he probably has the longest list of better things to do out of all of us…
Wright, Andy, Carlo, Jeff, Craig and Ted… we salute you.
