While the record gets blurrier the further back we go, no Met that we know of has ever been reported as being in the BSoHL before Christmas.
There is some talk of a Met or two filing a protest. I don't want to say whom, but one of their names rhymes with Scram Taggerty. The argument is sort of along the line of "Sure he's in his best shape, but that's pretty easy for him, as the guy has looked like a gummy bear for two or three years now."
While we have to admit that this argument isn't without merit (similar arguments were made by Chris Woodward when Heath Bell walked off with the 2005 trophy), unless the appeal leads to a reversal, this year's BSoHL crown goes to Guillorme. Congratulations, Luis.
