''Baseball Digest'' is a baseball magazine resource, published in Evanston, Illinois by Grandstand Publishing, LLC. It is the oldest and longest-running baseball magazine in the United States. It was created by Herbert F. Simons, a sportswriter for the ''Chicago Daily Times'', in 1942. Simons first published the magazine in August , and served as its editor-in-chief until 1963. In 1981, Joan Whaley was published as its first female contributor. After publishing on a monthly schedule, it scaled back to eight and then later six times a year (Jan./Feb., Mar./Apr., May/June, Jul./Aug., Sep./Oct., Nov./Dec.)—with National and American League schedules, directories, and pre-season rosters—the magazine provides insights on Major League Baseball history and on current stars, often from one-on-one interviews. In June 2009, a letter to readers in the magazine advised that only six issues per year would be published. In March 2012, ''Baseball Digest'' merged with professional scouting service ProScouting.〔http://mrmagazine.wordpress.com/2012/05/04/you-dont-know-america-if-you-dont-know-baseball-and-you-dont-know-baseball-if-you-dont-know-baseball-digest-magazine-the-mr-magazine-interview-with-norman-jacobs-publisher-of-base〕 This merger brought together ''Baseball Digest''s expertise in fan-level publishing with ProScouting’s depth of professional scouting experience just in time for ''Baseball Digest''s 70th Anniversary issue September 4, 2012. The relaunch included major changes to the magazine's format including being published in full-color for the first time, nearly double the editorial content including professional scouting reports by veteran MLB scouts, and a significant increase in newsstand availability. Other features include batting, pitching and fielding statistics, a "fans speak out" letters section, a "Baseball Profile" of one player, trivia questions in a Quick Quiz, previews, rules review, a crossword puzzle, and analysis of upcoming prospects. In addition, ''Baseball Digest'' provides season-ending features on its All-Star rookie team along with player and pitcher of the year ratings. Its longtime editor, John Kuenster died on April 2, 2012.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=John Kuenster 1924-2012: Baseball writer and editor known for his love of the game )〕 ==''Baseball Digest'' Player of the Year== * 1969: Tom Seaver, New York Mets * 1970: Billy Williams, Chicago Cubs * 1971: Joe Torre, St. Louis Cardinals * 1972: Dick Allen, Chicago White Sox * 1973: Pete Rose, Cincinnati Reds * 1974: Lou Brock, St. Louis Cardinals * 1975: Joe Morgan, Cincinnati Reds * 1976: Joe Morgan, Cincinnati Reds * 1977: George Foster, Cincinnati Reds * 1978: Ron Guidry, New York Yankees * 1979: George Brett, Kansas City Royals * 1980: George Brett, Kansas City Royals * 1981: Mike Schmidt, Philadelphia Phillies * 1982: Robin Yount, Milwaukee Brewers * 1983: Carlton Fisk, Chicago White Sox * 1984: Ryne Sandberg, Chicago Cubs * 1985: Dwight Gooden, New York Mets * 1986: Roger Clemens, Boston Red Sox * 1987: Andre Dawson, Chicago Cubs * 1988: José Canseco, Oakland Athletics * 1989: Will Clark, San Francisco Giants * 1990: Ryne Sandberg, Chicago Cubs * 1991: Cal Ripken Jr., Baltimore Orioles * 1992: Roberto Alomar, Toronto Blue Jays * 1993: Barry Bonds, San Francisco Giants * 1994: Jeff Bagwell, Houston Astros * 1995: Albert Belle, Cleveland Indians * 1996: Alex Rodriguez, Seattle Mariners * 1997: Larry Walker, Colorado Rockies * 1998: Sammy Sosa, Chicago Cubs * 1999: Iván Rodríguez, Texas Rangers * 2000: Todd Helton, Colorado Rockies * 2001: Barry Bonds, San Francisco Giants * 2002: Barry Bonds, San Francisco Giants * 2003: Iván Rodríguez, Florida Marlins * 2004: Vladimir Guerrero, Anaheim Angels * 2005: Albert Pujols, St. Louis Cardinals * 2006: Derek Jeter, New York Yankees * 2007: Jimmy Rollins, Philadelphia Phillies * 2008: Albert Pujols, St. Louis Cardinals * 2009: Joe Mauer, Minnesota Twins * 2010: Josh Hamilton, Texas Rangers * 2011: Ryan Braun, Milwaukee Brewers * 2012: Miguel Cabrera, Detroit Tigers * 2013: Miguel Cabrera, Detroit Tigers 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Baseball Digest」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
