While baseball's official awards won't be handed out until next week, some hardware that is arguably more respected was handed out Wednesday night in the MLB Players Choice Awards.
Players from around the league voted on the best in the majors both on the field and off it. While the finalists were similar in many cases to those in the BBWAA awards, there were quite a few surprises in the eventual winners.
Jose Altuve was the big winner of the night with three awards, but a handful of players should feel happy with their honors from each league and overall.
