Cartwright Award - Nominees

Harry Arundel, Louisville Grays - RHP (29-22, 2.51, 434.2 IP, 477 H, 59 BB, 202 K, 1 HR) - He shattered all previous records for strikeouts, and since cranks appear to love the new "Ks," this brand of base ball could be here to stay.

Foghorn Bradley, Boston Red Caps - RHP (19-25, 2.79, 370.2 IP, 492 H, 30 BB, 106 K, 1 HR) - A solid pitcher who had a very strong year, but the losing record will likely hurt his chances.

Bobby Mitchell, Cincinnati Reds - LHP (20-28, 2.54, 404.1 IP, 486 H, 36 BB, 188 K, 3 HR) - Although he had a great rookie season, he is a longshot to also take the Cartwright.

J. O'Neill, Chicago White Stockings - RHP (34-17, 2.73, 445.1 IP, 555 H, 14 BB, 85 K, 3 HR) - O'Neill won the award in 1876, and led the White Stockings to their second straight championship, so he must be considered a leading contender.

George Zettlein, Hartford Dark Blues - RHP (30-19, 3.02, 422.2 IP, 497 H, 14 BB, 81 K, 7 HR) - As a back-to-back 30-game winner, Zettlein should figure in the Cartwright discussions, but his peripheral statistics have never been very good.

And the 1877 Cartwright Award winner is... HARRY ARUNDEL. This is Arundel's first award, and will undoubtedly enhance his free agent value.
