Luis Gil – RHP, New York Yankees: -200
Luis Gil is leading the pack in the AL Cy Young Award race and is a top candidate to start the All-Star Game for the junior circuit. He boasts the lowest H/9 rate in baseball at 4.4 and holds the best AL records for ERA (2.03) and ERA+ (198). Having undergone Tommy John surgery previously, the Yankees plan to manage his innings carefully this season. However, if he transitions effectively to a bullpen role, he still stands a strong chance of clinching this prestigious award.
Mason Miller – Closer, Oakland Athletics: +450
Mason Miller is one of the most formidable relievers in baseball, notching 13 saves in 15 opportunities and an impressive 15.8 strikeouts per nine innings this season. The primary obstacle to his winning this award could be the potential for an NL team to make an irresistible trade offer to the A’s for his services.
Wilyer Abreu – OF, Boston Red Sox: +550
The 24-year-old outfielder is currently recovering from a right ankle sprain that has placed him on the injured list. Despite the setback, he has managed to hit 14 doubles and maintain an .829 OPS over 53 games.

Colton Cowser – OF, Baltimore Orioles: +1400
Colton Cowser has hit nine home runs and driven in 31 RBIs, also contributing defensively with nine outs above average. The key for him winning the award lies in securing enough at-bats. Given the wealth of young talent on the Orioles, teams typically ensure that skilled 24-year-olds like him receive consistent playing time.
Ceddanne Rafaela – IF/OF, Boston Red Sox: +1400
Ceddanne Rafaela has provided manager Alex Cora with exceptional defensive versatility, accruing six defensive runs saved and four outs above average in center field. While his .687 OPS may fall short of typical Rookie of the Year standards, he is undoubtedly a key component of the team's future strategy.
