Starting pitcher Luis Gil and catcher Austin Wells both had stellar seasons with the New York Yankees, but Baltimore Orioles outfielder Colton Cowser is also up for AL Rookie of the Year.
The New York Yankees won the AL East and snapped a 15-year pennant drought this season, and their two breakout rookies have been recognized for their respective contributions.
Gil was already named AL Rookie of the Year by Baseball Digest last week, and he remains the favorite to take home the BBWAA hardware. Upon his return to the big leagues in 2024, Gil went 15-7 with a 3.50 ERA, 1.193 WHIP, 171 strikeouts and a 3.1 WAR. If he hadn't led all of MLB with 77 walks, his stat line would look even more impressive.
Wells had a similarly shaky playoff run, batting .120 with a .460 OPS, but AL Rookie of the Year is a regular season award.
