Appalachian League Picks Skipper of the Year Tuesday, September 23rd , 2025 Luis Avilan stepped before the microphone today and accepted his Appalachian League Manager of the Year award, thanking the whole Kingsport Mets organization for making the 2025 season such a success. Avilan struggled to find the right words. "My father was a drill instructor in the military. He taught me that you have to work hard, set goals and accept responsibility for your actions. That's what the entire Kingsport organization did this year. My dedicated owner, coaching staff, hard-working and talented players and loyal front office all made this award possible. I thank them for it." And what a year it was. Avilan sparked the Mets to a 44-24 record and a first in the West standings. |
