Williams Grabs AZL Reliever of the Year Saturday, September 28th , 2097 Judah Williams was a calming influence out of the Milwaukee (AZL) Brewers 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 23-year-old turned in a sparkling season and has been named the winner of the Arizona Rookie League Reliever of the Year for 2097. The Los Angeles, California native won the award with 6 saves in 18 relief appearances, 53 strikeouts in 59.2 innings and a record of 4-1 to go with his 1.81 ERA. He received 14 first place votes, as a unanimous winner. Dennis Emmons of the Los Angeles N (AZL) Dodgers finished second in voting, while Phil Barbara of the San Diego (AZL) Padres finished third.
