Norman Grabs SBL Reliever of the Year Award Tuesday, May 30th , 2062 T.J. Norman was a calming influence out of the Missouri Tigers bullpen this season. His teammates and manager said he had a poised demeanor about him that was typical of someone much older and more experienced. His poise has paid off, as the 19-year-old turned in a sparkling season and has been named the winner of the Skip Bertman League Reliever of the Year Award for 2062. The Revere, Massachusetts native won the award with 2 saves in 12 relief appearances, 21 strikeouts in 25.1 innings and a record of 1-1 to go with his 1.78 ERA. He received 48 first place votes, as a unanimous winner. Jimmy Egbert of the Tennessee Volunteers finished second in voting, while Jeremy Bachman of the South Carolina Gamecocks finished third.
