New York, NY (SportsNetwork.com) - Clayton Kershaws offseason collection of hardware began on Monday with the Dodgers ace being named the 2014 Player of the Year as voted by the Major League Baseball Players Association. Kershaw led the majors with 21 wins in just 27 starts this past season, and his minuscule 1.77 ERA and 0.86 WHIP rank among the best of the last century. The left-hander, who threw a no-hitter against the Rockies on June 18, recorded 239 strikeouts with just 31 walks in 198 1/3 innings. Kershaw was also named the Marvin Miller Man of the Year for his off-the-field contributions to his community. Despite winning MLBPAs biggest award, Kershaw lost out on the NL player of the year ballot to Miamis Giancarlo Stanton, who hit 37 homers, knocked in 105 runs and recorded a .950 on-base plus slugging percentage. Stanton missed the final three weeks of the season after he was struck on the left side of his face by a fastball on Sept. 11. The ALs outstanding player was awarded to Angels outfielder Mike Trout. The 23-year-old Trout finished fifth in the majors in OPS (.939), scored 115 runs and set career highs with 36 homes runs and 111 RBI. The top pitcher in the AL was Seattles Felix Hernandez, who nearly matched Kershaw with a 0.92 WHIP and went 15-6 with a 2.14 ERA and 248 strikeouts. Chicago White Sox outfielder Jose Abreu was named the top rookie in the AL. Abreu finished third in the AL in home runs (36), fourth in RBI (107) and fifth in batting average (.317). Jacob DeGrom took home the NL rookie honor after pitching to a 2.69 ERA for the Mets this season. He tied a modern-era record by striking out the first eight Miami hitters he faced on Sept. 15. Seattles Chris Young and Miamis Casey McGehee were awarded the comeback player of the year awards for the AL and NL, respectively. Young did not pitch in the majors in the 2013 season due to injuries but battled back and went 12-9 with a 3.65 ERA for the Mariners this season. One season after playing in Japan, McGehee batted .287 with 76 RBI in 160 games with the Marlins. Jrue Holiday Jersey .

Twelve months ago Jose Reyes spent part of April on the disabled list with a severely sprained left ankle but there was no clear return date in sight. On Saturday, Reyes was back from a strained left hamstring. There was greater clarity this time around. He didnt expect to be out much longer than the 15 days he was required to spend on the disabled list. Turns out he was right. "Real happy just to be back with my teammates, see my guys again," said Reyes. "More happy that Im going to be on the field, playing and doing what I love to do, just play baseball." The Blue Jays technically went 9-7 in Reyes absence but he was a non-factor on Opening Day, reinjuring the hamstring that gave him trouble during spring training while running to first base in his lead off at-bat. In fact, when Reyes took his shortstop position on Saturday afternoon it was his first time in the field this season. For manager John Gibbons, who been able to field his preferred lineup far too infrequently since the start of last year, the return of Reyes means an opportunity to reset the lineup. "Its the way its supposed to look," said Gibbons. "Hopefully he gets us going a little bit more. He adds a little bit more offence. Its good to have him back." Just as Reyes returns, the Jays formally lose Adam Lind through at least April 30 after he was placed on the disabled list with stiffness in his lower back. In steps Juan Francisco, who hit 18 home runs in 348 bats for the Atlanta Braves and Milwuakee Brewers last season. Like Lind, Francisco will be a designated hitter who can spell Edwin Encarnacion at first base. Hell likely start at first base on Sunday. Francisco can play third base in a pinch, although he didnt get the call up for his defence. Since signing a minor league deal with the Blue Jays on April 2 following his spring release by the Brewers, Francisco has posted a .341/.420/.568 slash line with two home runs and 11 RBI for the Triple-A Buffalo Bisons. Blue Jays brass wrestled with the decision, Francisco or Dan Johnson, whos also off to a strong sttart with Buffalo (.dddddddddddd318/.466/.591, three home runs, 10 RBI). "Francisco worked out, he can hit a little bit," said Gibbons. "Hes got some juice in that bat so hopefully he can add something while Lindys out." Its one of baseballs mysteries as to why a guy like Francisco cant find a permanent home in the major leagues. Hes a left-handed bat and while not a batting average or on-base machine, at 26 years old and with his fourth big league Franciscos been around long enough to be, at the very least, a contributor off the bench. "Ive got no idea," said Gibbons. "Guys that make it in the big leagues and establish themselves, there have got to be some opportunities. I know hes had some opportunities but its got to be in the right organization. Theyve got to like you. Theyve got to throw you out there no matter what. But hes got some talent. Hopefully he shows up." DIAZ READY FOR ANYTHING Now that Jose Reyes has returned, Munenori Kawasaki is back in Buffalo, and with the Blue Jays committed to giving Ryan Goins the majority of playing time at second base, especially against right-handed pitching, Jonathan Diaz settles into a utility role. Diaz hasnt played much outfield in his professional career but hes worked hard on the craft during batting practice. "Ive always loved to shag my entire career ever since I can remember," said Diaz. "Every time Im done my ground balls I go out there and power shag and I enjoy it. I feel like thats prepared me throughout my life to be ready for this opportunity." The Blue Jays transferred Maicer Izturis to the 60-day list, formalizing his protracted absence, and despite his selection over Kawasaki, Diaz lamented the tough decisions that had to be made. "I was just saying earlier, were all buddies, we all wish we could all stick around," said Diaz. "Kawasakis such a great teammate but, you know, thats the way the game goes. Luckily I was able to stick around and Im going to go out there and work hard at every position I can because I know Im going to be that guy filling in a role."
