Looking over all of the responses, I have come to one conclusion-everyone will never be satisfied with what happens.

Are there other players that deserved to be on that list? Yes. Were there some that we left out? Yes. Should you try to down or doubt ANY of the players that were chosen to be on there?NO.

Austin Lyons is an amazing young man who has worked his butt off day in and day out becoming not only the baseball player that he is, the young man that he is and most importantly the leader and role model that he is. I believe from what I know of the young man and what I have seen of him as a player is that he deserves this recognition.


If you feel that there are players who were left off of this list, I understand your concern and your feelings. But have enough decency, respect, and intelligence to not down, disrespect, or try to insinuate that something "shady" is going on. These young men deserve the recognition. If you don't like it contact the appropriate people. Don't show ignorance by dogging Austin or any of these boys.

CONGRATS AUSTIN LYONS and all the young men chosen to be on this prestigious list.

The only ignorance that is going on here is the fact that you dont know the difference of questioning and insulting. Not once was there something said about Austin not deserving to be on the list. I said it was shady that Corey was not on there, that by no means is a knock on Austin and it was never even insinuated that it was an insult in anyway. Austin is a good pitcher, but Corey has had more production for the Tigers than Austin has, but Austin went down last year on a big stage and pitched a great game against a great team, and it apparently paid off for him. I wish him the best, but dont say anything about me or anybody else saying Austin didnt deserve this because i dont remember that ever being said. The only question was Corey should have been on it, and yes i can say it is shady because that is the way it looks.
