Chris Coghlan and Andrew Baily earned the Rookie of the Year honors.
Coghlan helped the Marlins finish in second place.
Coghlan batted a robust .321 with 84 runs scored while playing in 128 games.
Baily was 6-3 out of the bullpen with a 1.84 ERA and 26 saves.
He was one of the few bright spots for a struggling Athletics squad.
Even if you were a Pirates fan and rooted for Andrew McCutchen to win this award, or a Phillies fan who wanted J.A. Happ to take home the honors, you have to admit these guys deserved the award.
This year, was a very competitive year, especially in the National League. The senior circuit boasted fellow rooks Colby Rasmus and Dexter Fowler.
The American League had a stud shortstop in Elvis Andrus and an impressive ace in Rick Porcello.
