Aviles Named AL Co-Play of the Week!
He is the AL Co-player of the week with Xavier Nady from the Yankees.
"Aviles hit .577 (15-26) with three doubles, a triple, two home runs and five RBI. The 27-year-old posted a 1.000 slugging percentage along with a .593 on-base percentage."
Interesting fact, Aviles was picked over other royals including; Guillen, Greinke, Soria, and Butler.. who also recieved votes.

Damn!

You also got the name of the award wrong, slacker
It’s the “Bank of America Presents the American League Co-Players of the Week.”
Really rolls of the tongue.

How has he not won a Rookie of the Month award yet?
This is just my opinion. I could easily be wrong.
Interestingly, Longoria had better numbers in June and July by a little, but going by averages, Aviles has been better overall this season
This is just my opinion. I could easily be wrong.

I kind of wonder
if Longoria’s weird coincidental name gives him a little extra attention/credit than if he were named something nondescript
It probably has more to do with the fact that he's on one of the best teams in baseball and he was a top prospect who was well hyped
This is just my opinion. I could easily be wrong.

Most of the peple who voted for him didn't know who he was until they mistyped a nude picture search
