Trevor Story BAL
He did everything he could to carry the O’s this year, leading the AL with a 9.6 WAR. He earned that with a league leading 57 HRs and 119 RBIs, along with a .276/.355/.626 line. Not only was he the best offensive player in the AL, but his +7.4 ZR rating at SS showed his value goes beyond the batters’ box.
Bryce Harper TEX
Another big power year for Harper, 44 dingers gives him 137 HRs over the three-year span of the BRHLO. He also led the league in walks with 114, finishing with an OPS+ of 154. His final line was a .269/.393/.574 and he had 116 RBIs for this 105-win team, but his defense was below average in RF,
Nolan Arenado KC
The defensive anchor for KC put up a 8.2 ZR rating at 3B as usual. Oh, and he also happened to pump his three-year HR total up to 122 after his 37 bombs this time around. A .282/.356/.532 line led a lot of scored runs, showed by his 121 RBIs and 100 runs scored. Leading maybe the best Wild Card team in the history of the BRHLO to a 101-win season, he was chosen over teammate Trent Grisham in a tight race.
Jose Ramirez CLE
Leading the league in plate appearances, runs, and steals, Ramirez really put it all together this year. His 41 HRs and 111 RBIs set the team in motion to a 106-win season. His 57 steals were a full 17 more than anyone else in the league. The sheer number of CLE players that could be on this list is staggering, but his 8.4 WAR sets him apart from the field.
Marcus Semien CLE
Or does it? Marcus Semien put together this best season in what would turn out to be a 6.7 WAR, +2.9 ZR rating as the Indians SS. His 43 HRs crushed his previous high of 18, and his RBIs went up from 64 to 108. That improvement, coupled with a .273/.347/.542 line helped him fend off the likes of Rafael Devers, and Josh Donaldson for this spot.
Max Scherzer CLE
This team is loaded with proven studs and that extends to the mound as Max threw 220.1 innings and struck out 280 batters, which led the league. His League leading WHIP of 0.87 went along with his pitchers tops 7.0 WAR. The 36-year-old saw numerous top 10 finishes in the important pitching stats, showing his dominance was not limited to on facet of the game.
