November 1, 2000 Internet Baseball AwardsRookie of the YearAmerican League Perhaps not everyone considers him a rookie, but 32-year-old Kazuhiro Sasaki convinced enough voters to win the 2000 IBA Rookie of the Year award in the American League. The voting pattern indicates that Sasaki's age and experience in the Japanese Leagues may have been a factor. He appeared on 57 fewer ballots than runner-up Terrence Long, but was the top selection of more than 60% of those who did include him. Mark Quinn and Barry Zito were the clear #3 and #4 choices.

Unlike the AL race, the NL balloting was a two-man affair. Ankiel and Furcal each received more first- and second-place votes than everyone else combined. Mitch Meluskey edged Pat Burrell for third place.
