RU Rookie of the Year Award Presented
2016 was the year of the rookie pitchers in the IPA. Only pitchers got any votes in the rookie awards competition. Danny Siegfried was the creme de la creme this year -- the cream of the first-year player crop in the Ruthlandian Union. Today he was honored with the Rookie of the Year Award for 2016. Siegfried led Eastshore to it first RU East pennant and first playoff appearance in 13 years. Siegfried started 39 games and posted a 26-8 record. The Eastshore starter struck out 176 and walked 60 in 316 innings as he compiled a 2.25 ERA. The 36-year-old left-hander topped the IPA in wins with 26, tied with Harald Turi of the Bay St. Clair Buccaneers.

Two other pitchers gave Siegfried a run for the rookie award. Second in the vote was Colfax's Cliff James, who paced the RU with a 2.17 ERA and posted an 18-5 record. In the third spot was Beechwood's Billy Ray with a 21-8 mark in his freshman season and a 2.37 ERA. Both James and Ray are 23 and sparked their teams to a division crown.

Turi Selected TU Rookie of the Year
Harald Turi of the Bayview Vikings became quite a fan favorite over the course of the 2016 campaign. The phenomenal rookie racked up a terrific 26-4 record as he reeled in the Tycobbian Union Rookie of the Year Award and led the Vikings to the TU West flag. It's been nine years since Bayview made the Pro Cup playoffs. In 40 starts, the 29-year-old Turi tallied 312 innings, 153 strikeouts and an ERA of 2.19.

Number two in the vote was North Hills closer Ben Garland. He was a vital force in the Hawks ascent to the top of the TU North. The 22-year-old Garland was 8-1 in relief with 25 saves and a sensational 1.69 ERA. Ranked third was Oxford's fine closer Arnie Bradshaw, who saved 30 games with a 2.81 ERA and a 5-5 record, despite playing for a 7th-place club.
