Here are the voting results :Julio Rodrguez, Mariners (29 first-place votes)Adley Rutschman, Orioles (one first-place vote)Steven Kwan, GuardiansBobby Witt Jr., RoyalsJeremy Pea, AstrosGeorge Kirby, MarinersA fellow center fielder -- Michael Harris II of the Braves -- .Rodrguez, 21, made the Mariners out of spring training instead of being sent down for a weeks to for purposes of service-time manipulation. He got off to a slow start, but having the full season meant he had plenty of time to adapt on the fly and he did so. He caught fire starting with a 2-for-4 Jaden McDaniels Jersey game on April 22, hitting .298/.357/.542 with 24 doubles, three triples, 28 home runs, 73 RBI, 80 runs and 21 stolen bases in his last 120 games. Along the way, he played great defense in center field for a team that snapped a 20-plus year playoff drought. On the season, Rodrguez had 6.2 WAR on Baseball-Reference (bWAR) and 5.3 on Fangraphs (fWAR). He clubbed 28 homers and stole 25 bases, making him the third rookie in history to go 25-25 and the fastest ever to those marks (125 games), beating 's previous record of 128.Rodrguez joins Alvin Davis (1984), Kaz Sasaki (2000), (2001, when he also won Andrew Wiggins Jersey MVP) and (2020) on the list of Mariners who have won this award. Rodrguez now adds the AL Rookie of the Year award to his mantle alongside his Silver Slugger after he was an All-Star and made some noise in the Home Run Derby. He signed a monster contract extension that'll likely keep him in Seattle for the next decade-plus while he's making generational money. Quite an age-21 year, huh? The runner-up, Rutschman, gets a full year of Rondae Hollis-Jefferson Jersey service time despite having only appeared in 113 games, thanks to the top-two Rookie of the Year finishers stipulation in the new collective bargaining agreement. In those 113 games, Rutschman hit .254/.362/.445 (128 OPS+) with 35 dobules, a triple, 13 home runs, 42 RBI, 70 runs, four stolen bases, 5.2 bWAR and 5.3 fWAR.He threw out 11 of the 36 would-be basestealers, which is 31 percent caught stealing against a league average of 25 percent. He only allowed two pa sed balls all season. The Orioles' pitching staff had a 3.97 ERA on the season, but it was 3.78 when Rutschman caught.Kwan, 25, hit .298 Hats /.373/.400 (124 OPS+, heavy on the OBP) with 25 doubles, seven triples, six homers, 52 RBI, 89 runs, 19 steals, 5.5 bWAR and 4.4 fWAR. He rated out as one of the top defensive left fielders in baseball and was a catalyst at the top of the batting order for a division champion. The rest of the BBWAA awards will be handed out this week, with Manager of the Year on Tuesday, Cy Young honors on Wednesday and MVP on Thursday.
