Award Winners

Select honored Paul Molitor and Carlos Delgado as their "MVP" and "Rookie of the Year," respectively, with Dufex inserts. The cards were seeded at the rate of approximately one-per-case.

Although Paul Molitor finished 2nd in the AL MVP voting for 1993, the real reason Select named Paul Molitor their MVP was because Frank Thomas was the spokesperson for Leaf. After getting off to a hot start, Delgado spent the bulk of the '94 season in the minors and did not receive a single Rookie of the Year vote.
