Best OR Reliever Named Tuesday, September 29th, 2020 Axel Acevedo said he thinks hitters often underestimate him, as he's only 20 years old. But he'll certainly be getting a lot more respect now, as the San Bernardino Golden Knights rising star has won the OLL Rookie League Reliever of the Year Award for 2020. He captured the award on the strength of his 1.52 ERA over 29.2 innings. He also had 3 saves in 24 relief appearances, 34 strikeouts and only 11 walks. He received 6 first place votes out of a possible 26. Israel Mateo of the Minot Sluggers finished second in voting with 9 first place votes, while Nick Paciorek of the Minot Sluggers finished third with 4 first place votes. Player - Team - First Place - Total Points Axel Acevedo - San Bernardino Golden Knights - 6 - 66 Israel Mateo - Minot Sluggers - 9 - 60 Nick Paciorek - Minot Sluggers - 4 - 49 Gage Bradley - Wilmington Surge - 6 - 39 Nathan Fink - Irvine Marlins - 1 - 20 |
