2013 Superior League MVP

The 2013 Superior League MVP came down to the classic debate of "Should a pitcher be eligible for the award"?  Without a runaway season by a hitter, it seemed like this could be the year that a pitcher claimed the award, specifically Joe Callahan.  In a close race, the voters decided that a fairly run-of-the-mill season from Frank Lewis was enough for the jawa to claim his 2nd MVP award.  This is not intended to be a slight to Frank, and in fact shows how great he is.  In a season which was far from one of his best, he took the top honors.  If things had broke his way and he wasn't in the same league as Mighty Joe Young, Frank may have had up to 6 awards by now.

Frank hit .304-.456-.587 and collected 34 HR (tying his career high), 93 RBI, 26 2B, 6 3B, 127 BB, and 17 HBP.  The .304 average was the lowest in his 13 year career.  Complete voting as follows:
