<font color='black' size='2' face='arial'>That's 2 years in a row that the Berliners have owned the Minor League Player of the Year. Of course, you're all fully aware of the return that Mr. Jansen got by trading for last year's winner, Mike Trout. One can only imagine the return that young Wil might provide (and at only $10 to boot).

<div>The trading season begins the day after the Brats are crowned the 2012 champions. You know where to find me.</div>

The Royals believed Wil Myers could profile as a middle-of-the-order hitter, but it took until this year for him to really hit like one.
