One of Those Rectangle States.

It seems that This Year in Baseball, like the rest of us (note: sarcasm) MLB didn't bother to pay any attention to the Colorado Rockies. I imagine that a lot of hard work went into design of the voting form for this year's This Year in Baseball Awards; each nominee gets a neat little interactive baseball card with their picture on it but clearly unable to pick Carlos Gonzalez out of a lineup (it's either that or they figured that no one would notice) they just left his nomination for hitter of the year blank. He's like the shadow guy on Facebook. (They did put his picture up for the other two nominations he got.)

As for Boston nominees, they've got Beltre, Lester and Buchholz, Papelbon and Bard, Francona (the only who might deserve some consideration), and Nava and Darnell McDonald's Boston debuts.
