The National League is loaded with young talent in this 2023 MLB season, and many candidates warrant consideration to win Rookie of the Year.

Below, we’ll look into the top five candidates using odds from FanDuel Sportsbook.

1. (Tie) Corbin Carroll +200

Corbin Carroll of the Arizona Diamondbacks sits in a tie as the odds-on favorite for the NL ROY. Entering the year, he was listed as one of the top prospects in MLB, and he’s performed admirably during his rookie campaign. 

Carroll has been a demon on the base paths when he’s been able to get on, tallying 13 stolen bases, along with a .889 OPS. He’s headed toward being the next face of the franchise and boasts +200 odds to win the NL ROY. 

1. (Tie) James Outman +200 

We’re at the point now with the Los Angeles Dodgers where we should probably stop being surprised when they produce another outstanding player from their farm system. James Outman has been just that for them in 2023, and he’s impacted them in multiple ways. 

The Dodgers outfielder has a solid .830 OPS, paired with nine home runs and 28 RBI. He’s given them a newfound source of production from the lower part of their batting order, and he sits in a tie with Carroll as the odds-on favorite to win NL ROY at +200. 

3. Brett Baty +1500

The New York Mets have been looking for some youngsters to contribute, and they’ve found that with third baseman Brett Baty. The highly touted prospect has already been able to find success at the big league level, and it’s been much needed for a Mets squad that struggled out of the gate. 

Baty has had some solid numbers at the hot corner for the Mets, including a .743 OPS in 97 at-bats. As he gets more comfortable in the big leagues, don’t be surprised if an uptick in power and production comes. Baty currently boasts +1500 odds to win the award. 

4. Dominic Fletcher +2000

The second Arizona Diamondback on this odds list is Dominic Fletcher. He hasn’t been able to have the same impact as Carroll for the club, but he’s still been able to put together some positive results. 

In 75 at-bats, Fletcher has tallied a .848 OPS and 13 RBI. If Fletcher can continue to bring this type of production to Arizona’s lineup, he can potentially be considered a value at his current price of +2000. 

5. Eury Perez +2800

A young starting pitcher for the Miami Marlins has also been making some headlines in Eury Perez. The 20-year-old right-hander has jumped onto the scene and impacted Miami’s rotation, leading to his name being in the conversation. 

Perez is still a longshot because of his smaller sample size, but he’s put together a strong three starts, which have led him to a 1-1 record, paired with a 3.86 ERA and 16 strikeouts. Perez is listed at +2800 to win the NL ROY, but don’t be surprised if that rises if he continues at his current pace.
