The California League recognized an impressive list of players and field staff with today’s announcement of the 2014 Postseason All-Star Team and Field Awards. Not only does the league acknowledge the outstanding players from the season, but they also tip the cap to a manager, coach, turf manager and a clubbie.

The MVP is SS Corey Seager, who excelled at Rancho Cucamonga before being promoted to AA Chatanooga in July. LHP Josh Hader was tabbed as Pitcher of the Year for what he did with Lancaster prior to his promotion to AA Corpus Christi. SS Jose Rondon earned Rookie of the Year honors while playing for Inland Empire, then joining Lake Elsinore after the Huston Street trade July 19th.

Stockton had its manager, Ryan Christenson, recognized as well as coach John Wasdin. Christenson picks up the honor in his first year as manager for the Ports.

Rancho Cucamonga’s Rex Whitney was named the circuit’s best Turf Manager while Lake Elsinore’s clubbie, Terrance Tucker, was also singled out for excellence.
