Randy Arozarena Wins AL Rookie of the Year

Randy Arozarena made a name for himself during the Tampa Bay Rays World Series run in 2020, setting the Major League record for hits and home runs in a single postseason. In doing, he had not yet exhausted his rookie eligibility, meaning he entered the 2021 season as a betting favorite to win the AL Rookie.

Near the mid-point of the season, Arozarena was sitting as far down as fourth on the futures board with +390 odds to win the award. On Monday, the MLB confirmed that the Rays outfielder won the Jackie Robinson Award.
