Making a Case for A.J. Hinch as Manager of the Year

Following the announcements of the three finalists per category last Tuesday, this week marks MLB’s big 2019 Awards festivities. Rookies of the Year will come on Monday, Managers on Tuesday, Cy Young winners the day after, and finally the MVPs on Thursday.

And it’s not much of a surprise the Astros are well represented, between Alex Bregman among the MVP finalists, Yoran Álvarez looking like the favorite in the AL Rookie of the Year race, and both Gerrit Cole and Justin Verlander landing in the Cy Young top three. It’s hard to feel slighted, given all of that.
