Arraez finishes 6th in AL Rookie of the Year vote

[Seth Stohs]

As Expected, Astros DH Yordan Alvarez was the unanimous choice for AL Rookie of the Year, ahead of O's LHP John Means and Rays second baseman Brandon Lowe. Luis Arraez received a 2nd place vote and two 3rd place votes and finished sixth. Eloy Jimenez finished fourth and Cavan Biggio finished 5th. 

 

Mets 1B Pete Alonso was one vote shy of a unanimous win in the National League.

Interesting. I guess home runs matter!

The only question I have is.....who didn't vote for Alonso? The AL looks about right, overall.

6th in Rookie of the year voting but #1 in our hearts.

Andrew Baggerly. I believe he's a Giants writer gave Mike Soroka a first-place vote.

6th seems about right. Good for Arraez!

Alonso was pretty good, but so was Soroka who got the other 1st place vote, and frankly so was Tatis Jr. who finished 3rd:

 

bWAR / fWAR

Alonso: 5.0 / 4.8

Soroka: 5.6 / 4.0

Tatis Jr.: 4.2 / 3.6 (in only 84 games)
