American League Reliever of the Year Odds (Josh Hader Favored in First Season With Astros)

Major League Baseball's Reliever of the Year award is a rather new market, with the first awards (AL and NL) being handed out in the 2014 season.

After a decade of seeing how this award is handed out, we've noticed that it's not a guarantee that the saves leader in the respective league wins the award (just ask Emmanuel Clase after his 2023 season).

So, with that in mind, how should we bet on it?

Oddsmakers have released the opening numbers for this market, and there is a familiar face that is expected to win the award in the American League, even though this will be his first season in the AL.
