 They will be eating for free with Bull who managed to barely hold onto the third spot, edging out Winston by a very expensive half a point. Both Bull and WInston were towards the top all year, as were 5th Place Mike and 6th Place Birdie, but both of their teams gave way come September, I blame the managers. They will be eating for free with Bull who managed to barely hold onto the third spot, edging out Winston by a very expensive half a point.

-The top half of the league was fairly set all season as was the bottom half, McNally and VIg jostled for seventh and eighth respectively while Moon had ninth locked and the commish’s title defense fell woefully short in tenth place. Tom was glad Eben is in the league…if you could say that with a straight face as WIlson had a historically bad season.+The top half of the league was fairly set all season as was the bottom half, McNally and Vig jostled for seventh and eighth respectively while Moon had ninth locked and the commish’s title defense fell woefully short in tenth place.

 **This was another slam dunk of an award. Cole was the 6th overall ranked pitcher, the next closest? Logan Webb at 21 overall. Bull ate for free, finishing in third place, and a major reason why was Cole’s mound dominance. Well deserved from the Yankee ace, [[http://rockemsockemfantasybaseball.com/2020_2020rswalunch|his second Sockie]].** **This was another slam dunk of an award.

 **Do I really even need to give a reason? BK hadn’t won in years, and the slump wouldn’t be a slump to any other manager (well maybe Birdie), but another Hot September propelled the Champ to the title and this award. Shout out to Fatty for a full season of legitness, but this one is BK’s** **Do I really even need to give a reason?

 **Co-winners of this award, the double dirty BJ’s just couldn’t get it going last year. For a one-two punch of 1st and 2nd rounders they finished 82nd and 86th respectively. Neither was hurt, both just sucked, especially based on previous seasons; figures they would both have down years when I owned them. Other Honorable mentions, Wander Franco…less said the better. Mullins was a let down but he also fought injuries, Matt Chapman sucked it up for Don and Willy Adames was god awful for Mike finishing 300th overall, just missing out on this award.** **Co-winners of this award, the double dirty BJ’s just couldn’t get it going last year.

 **This one was another obvious call as Bellinger had a bounce back year for Vig. Drafted with the 230th pick he put together an amazing year, finishing 13th overall. Tom almost struck gold with Yandy Diaz who he grabbed at pick 249 as he wound up 17th while Christian Walker went in the 10th round to Mike, making him eligible for this award and finished 32nd. Nice work and by the way, Vig has won this award in [[http://rockemsockemfantasybaseball.com/2023_2023sockies|back to back]] years…and had to pay for dinner in both.** **This one was another obvious call as Bellinger had a bounce back year for Vig.
