Curiously, Dickson was the only one of the six nominees who didn't receive a Major League callup at some point this season. The 6'5" right-hander went wire-to-wire with the Memphis Redbirds, who lost to the Tacoma Rainiers in the Pacific Coast League Finals. Dickson anchored the Redbirds' starting rotation, finishing in the PCL top five in wins (11), ERA (3.23), and strikeouts (137). Not bad for a guy with no prior Triple-A experience, pitching in a notoriously hitter-friendly circuit. Dickson received over half of the vote (55 percent), with strong showings also posted by Durham's Jeremy Hellickson (23 percent) and Scranton/Wilkes-Barre's Ivan Nova (17 percent).
