Since no one else has collected or posted much of the data, awards, teams and so one we've decided to do it. Here is the 1950 All-Rookie team as chosen by The Sporting News.
There were some terrific players on that 1950 team. Joe Adcock, speedster Sam Jethroe who hit .273, 18 homers, and stole 35 bases to lead the NL to win the NL Rookie of the Year Award.
For some reason Wally Dropo was not on the All-Rookie Team for 1950, He hit .322 and drove in 144 runs and slammed 34 homers, and was the AL Rookie of the year. Some mysteries will never be solved.
Nonetheless here s the full team.
