Honestly, I hated Brian Stokes SO much in 2006 and 2007, I needed to vote for him. I don't think I'll ever forget his name or face.

I could see what D-Rays management saw in Stokes
He had some good stuff on the mound, he was just too damn hittable. I think Maddon tried to force him into the set-up guy role and Stokes was not ready for that. He just kind of folded.
In the name of Shinji Mori, we shall win!
