The Seattle Mariners have been one of the best teams in all of MLB since the All-Star break, and right now, there may not be a hotter player in all of baseball than their superstar Julio Rodriguez. The 22-year-old reigning AL Rookie of the Year has been on a tear over the last week, pulling off a feat that has never been accomplished in the long and storied history of MLB. Over the course of four games, Julio racked up a whopping 17 hits, more than some entire teams had over the same stretch, while also greatly buoying his season stats as well. Most importantly, his heroics have put the M’s right in the thick of the AL wild-card race. And sure, Shohei Ohtani has had the AL MVP Award wrapped up for some time now, but if he finishes the season playing this well, J-Rod could be looking at a top-five finish in the AL MVP race.
Which brings us to today’s quiz of the day. Or course, Julio is no stranger to winning awards, having taken home the aforementioned AL ROY hardware last season. So with that in mind, how many of these past ROY winners since the 2000 MLB season can you name in six minutes?
Good luck!
