New York Yankees 1B Luke Voit wins AL Player of the Week

With all the injuries the New York Yankees have sustained during the 2019 season, first baseman Luke Voit has been a godsend. The former unknown picked up right where he left off in 2018 and was named American League Player of the Week by W.B. Mason per Thomas Harrigan of MLB.com.

Voit’s ridiculous week propelled the Yankees to a 6-1 record and a sweep over the San Francisco Giants. He put up a ridiculous slash line of .433/.528/.867 and was the heart and soul of the lineup despite being surrounded by names like Mike Tauchman, Gio Urshela, and Tyler Wade.
