Part of a suggestion and the process one gets by making a link is getting other views and refining the idea, exploring the pros and cons, and ultimately ending up with a viable solution on how it could be done. So far it has been 3 posts with positive attitudes and constructive critisism towards the idea and 1 against one portion of the original idea, with constuctive critisism in your second post. I don't see this idea as not thought through. Maybe not all aspects is clear, but that's what we should find out together, right? As an addition to the whole award idea, I think this should be just for flair, with no actual effect on merchandise/gate receipts and so on. The only effect would be a greater depth to the game and the player, a stronger bond between the manager and his team and possibly, but not definitely, percieved value of the player.

Rookie Of the YearI think this could be achieved... especially to those teams who play them as starter... Div. III~V teams could be highly motivated on this award. (IMO)
Rookie Of the Year
The only issue is in the higher division, there are probably few first year players getting to many minutes, so it might not mean too much.
