Baltimore Orioles: Why Trey Mancini should be the AL Rookie of the Year

Those young Baltimore Orioles include All-Stars Manny Machado and Jonathan Schoop, as well as Trey Mancini. Machado and Schoop have both earned accolades for their outstanding abilities.

And, Mancini should seriously be considered for the 2017 Rookie of the Year award.

While other rookies have made splashy plays at various times throughout the season, Mancini has been consistent both at the plate and on defense. Because of this, he is deserving of recognition for having an impactful rookie year.

April numbers

Mancini came out of the gates running. In April, he hit 5 home runs and had 12 RBIs in his first 16 games.
