2006 - The "Old Aches and Pains" Award Luke Appling gained a reputation for playing through injuries by hitting .318 despite persistent knee and back problems. In 1937, Appling managed to play in more than half of his team's games and hit over .300 despite nursing a broken leg! His 2006 counterpart would have to be Brad Radke, who started 28 games and finished with an ERA better than the league average while pitching through a stress fracture in his right shoulder socket and a partially torn labrum. He also went 12-9 and finished with the 6th best BB/9 in the AL. |
