Gillette and MLB team up to Present the ‘MLB Rookie of the Month Award presented by Gillette’

Pseudofolliculitis, indeed! Another goofy award by MLB...presented by Gillette, of course.

Nominees are selected from all eligible players by pre-determined on-field statistical criteria. Winners of the MLB Rookie of the Month Award presented by Gillette are now determined by an online vote that will represent 20% of the overall vote with the remaining votes coming from a select panel of baseball writers and Club broadcasters.

“Major League Baseball and Gillette have a long standing and successful business relationship, so it is a great pleasure to announce this new program that allows fans greater access to Major League Baseball,” said John Brody, Senior Vice President, Corporate Sales & Marketing, Major League Baseball. “The ‘MLB Rookie of the Month Award presented by Gillette’ will honor the finest young talent in the game, and our fans will play an integral role in selecting the top performing rookie in both the American and National League each month.”
