BBWAA Awards week kicked off Monday night with the announcement of the winners of the 2023 Rookie of the Year Awards. For just the fifth time in MLB history, both winners were unanimous selections. Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Corbin Carroll took home the award in the National League while Baltimore Orioles infielder Gunnar Henderson won for the American League.
Carroll put together a stand out season in his first full season in the majors hitting .285/.362/.506 with a 133 wRC+ in 155 games. He became the first rookie ever to hit at least 25 home runs and steal 50 bases.
