Good morning, Camden Chatters.
Until last season, the Orioles had gone 34 straight years without winning a Rookie of the Year award. Now they’ve got a real shot at winning their second in a row.
O’s outfielder Colton Cowser has been named as one of the three finalists for AL Rookie of the Year, alongside a pair of Yankees, right-hander Luis Gil and catcher Austin Wells. Cowser will be hoping to follow the lead of his teammate Gunnar Henderson, who won Rookie of the Year in 2023.
Keep in mind that “finalist” is not a completely accurate term here, as there is no further voting to come.
