Is it the Rennie Stennett award in Panama?

According to this story in Spanish from a Venezuelan TV station, former big leaguer Robert Perez won the MVP award for the Venezuelan Winter League. It's the Vic Davalillo Award.

Perez became the fifth player in the history of the Venezuelan Leagues to break the 1000 hit mark. Davalillo is the alltime leader at 1505. The first Venezuelan to play in the majors was Alex Carrasquel, a pitcher for Washington.

I believe that Andruw Jones has taken home a lot of Hensley Meulens Awards.

7 for 7. I believe Rennie Stennett was either on the cover or a big feature in the first Baseball Digest I ever bought.
