Calm, cool and collected, this Tier 4 legend continued his dominance of Tier 4 hitters with his control and pinpoint accuracy leading his team in all pitching categories ... for, like, the 18th straight season. Or something like that...
52.33 IP, 6-3 record, 4.82 ERA, 1.66 BB+H/IP, 23 K, 13BB
Jonny continued to terrify opposing Tier 4 pitchers, smashing the ball all over the field! He led the Rockets offensively and was # 1 in most offensive categories including batting average, slugging %, RBIs and HRs --crushing 5 jacks out of the park, a couple of which still haven't landed...

As feared as any cleanup hitter in the Tier, Spencer hit .446, with
a .513 OBP and .677 SLUG, with a team-leading 29 hits, 3 home runs (all
in regulation parks) and 25 RBI, while striking out only three times.
Spencer was a truly consistent force in the Gryphons lineup.
At the time of this writing, on the eve of Game 3 of the finals,
Peter was the premier pitcher in the Tier II playoffs, with three complete
game wins with a 2.00 ERA and 32 Ks. Peter was a true gamer
in the regular season, overcoming arm woes and other various injuries to
log 32 innings this year, with a 3.25 ERA, 1.67 WHIP and 32 strikeouts.
*** Editors note : Peter pitched the Gryphons to the Tier 2 championship
with a 4-0 victory in Winchester***
Marc led the team in run scored, RBI's, Home runs, WKS, batting avg.
slugging % and on base %
Marc was our most dangerous hitter with runners in scoring position
and one of our key players that helped us finish 1st overall. He also
played at 5 different defensive positions during the season.
A slick fielding first baseman, Danny carried his team offensively
and played rock solid defensively all year long. He was a spark plug high
up in the line-up -- his team leading .549 ONB % can attest to that. He
simply did it all with stick. He was top 5 on the team in ONB %, batting
average, slugging %, hits, runs, RBIs, doubles, HRs, walks, SBs and plate
appearances. He can also pick a ball out the dirt with ease. Is there anything
this guy can't do? When you think Tier 4 MVP, you gotta think Danny Lizotte!

Reason: Avg .639, RBI 46 (22% of our total
runs scored) HR 9 (3 away and 6 in Winchester -- which should
equate to 5 to 6 realistically but add the difference to doubles).
11 doubles in 23 games played. Our 4 hitter hitting
behind Miller hit .418 and had 17 RBI as there was no one left on bases
when Miller was done.
Brody could only make it to 10 games but he was there for almost
all of our wins. Lead by the +.600 hitting 3 Hrs(including a grand slam
to start a win against the Knights) and 25 rbi (2 shy of team record).
His defense at third took kept some runners off the bases as well.

8 wins 1 lose 2 saves. That gives him a direct impact
in 10 of our 17 wins. ERA was 4.68 with all but two starts
in Winchester (a band box of a park). There seeemed like he
gave up two lazy fly ball easy out homeruns a game at home and still managed
a 4.68 era. Pitched 64 innings which is over 42% of all innings
pitched by team. Opening week was a great example of
his heart pitching 6.3 innings in a no decision and then pitching 2 innings
for the save two days later.
Despite Brody's numbers. I am nominating Neal for his .600+
avg, 20/20 run/rbi and 9 multihit games and a 5 hit game. He also
had a hit in every game but his last one.

Brad dominated again for us this year. When Brad wasn't pitching
he was playing CF for us throwing out a number of runners from CF.
He was dominate at the plate putting up some impressive numbers (see below).
He was our top pitcher both in a starting role and coming in to close games
out (see pitching stats above).

Jonny joined the team this year and anchored our pitching with someone
almost always gave us a chance to win, which we were missing since we had
a healthy Stuart Hayes. His overall numbers might not look as strong
as others but they are skewed by his first outing and a couple games when
he was hurt but still pitched.
