MLB Award Selections per Baseball Bloggers Alliance

My blog here at Baltimore Sports and Life is part of the Baseball Bloggers Alliance (BBA) (http://baseballbloggersalliance.wordpress.com/).

The BBA was founded in 2009 with the purpose of encouraging collaboration and communication among bloggers from across baseball.  As a secondary goal, the Alliance also votes on various awards at different times in the year. There are currently 300+ blogs that comprise the membership of the BBA.

In addition to the link above, some additional links for the BBA are:
