The MLB season has officially wrapped up, and while the spotlight is often on the big awards like MVP and Cy Young, MLB Network analyst Alex Avila has introduced a refreshing perspective with his Good Guy Awards. This year, Kyle Schwarber and Anthony Rizzo took home the honors for their significant contributions off the field, highlighting the importance of community engagement in sports.
This raises some intriguing questions for us as fans and followers of the game. How much do you value a player's contributions off the field compared to their on-field performance? Should awards like these be more prominent in the conversation around player recognition?
Moreover, with Schwarber's impressive stats and Rizzo's more modest numbers this season, does this shift your perception of what makes a player truly valuable? Are we witnessing a new trend where character and community involvement are becoming as important as batting averages and home runs?
Let’s also consider the impact of these players' foundations. How do you think initiatives like Schwarber’s Neighborhood Heroes and the Anthony Rizzo Family Foundation influence the perception of athletes in society?
As we dive into the offseason, what bold predictions do you have for how these players will continue to impact their communities? Will we see more players stepping up in similar ways, or do you think this is a unique trait of Schwarber and Rizzo?
