There have been only nine Major League rookies in the last 30 years who have totaled 20 homers, 30 doubles and 90 runs.
It’s an impressive list of talent. Guys like Scott Rolen, Tim Salmon and Albert Pujols. Newer stars like Corey Seager and Pete Alonso. Then there is the newest addition to the list this season: Cincinnati Reds second baseman Jonathan India, the favorite to win the National League Rookie of the Year.
India is expected to become the franchise’s first Rookie of the Year since Scott Williamson in 1999 and the first position player since Chris Sabo in 1988.
