Castles Reliever Cops Pitching Award: "The kid had it all working last month," a veteran teammate told reporters. "He keeps up those kind of numbers, we might have to start inviting him out with us after the games."

Jaakko Paananen put together a very solid month to take home the Intercontinental Baseball League's top pitching honor in August.

The 24-year-old reliever threw like a veteran. In no relief appearances he raked in no saves and 33 strikeouts in 37.2 innings as he put together his 4-1 record and 1.43 ERA.

This year his season stats show Paananen has no saves in no relief appearances with a 6-6 record and 3.15 ERA.
