@cmkuiper There should be a college baseball award for someone who excels at multiple positions. Posey played all nine positions at FSU, including serving as the team's closer at times and playing a lot of SS. Just unreal versatility.

@cmkuiper It never did make much sense that that award was named after a guy who never went to college
