not that it matters at this point, but can Ellsbury still be considered a rookie next year?
You were hoping he stayed under the minimum in reg season.
Either way, it's a "rookie" year for the ages.
The limit is 130 AB, and he had 116, so he will still be considered a rookie next year.
I am so happy for Jacoby. He is a really great kid, and he comes from a good humble family. His mom is really a sweet lady. His youngest brother is a really nice kid, plays baseball with my oldest. Jacoby is really down to earth. Great friend to my nephew, called my mom "Grandma". Madras, Oregon is going banana's for Jacoby.
