Hank Aaron Award
AL: Aaron Judge, Yankees
Judge takes home the honor for a second time in three years after hitting an MLB-best 58 home runs with 144 RBIs and a staggering 1.159 OPS. The AL MVP favorite also led the majors in on-base percentage (.458), slugging percentage (.701), wRC+ (218), and fWAR (11.2).
NL: Shohei Ohtani, Dodgers
Ohtani became the first player in MLB history to record at least 50 round-trippers and 50 stolen bases in a single season, finishing with a dazzling 54-homer, 59-steal campaign. The NL MVP favorite is also the first major leaguer to win the Hank Aaron Award in both leagues after earning the AL honor in 2023.
Edgar Martínez Outstanding DH Award
Shohei Ohtani, Dodgers
Ohtani added to his trophy case by picking up his fourth consecutive designated hitter award. Hall of Famer David Ortiz is the last player to accomplish the feat, taking the honor five straight years from 2003-07. Ohtani led all qualified players at his position in homers, RBIs, runs, batting average, slugging percentage, OPS, and fWAR.
Reliever of the Year Awards
AL: Emmanuel Clase, Guardians
Clase is the recipient of the Mariano Rivera Award for a second time in three years. The 2024 AL Cy Young finalist posted a sublime 0.61 ERA and 0.66 WHIP with an AL-high 47 saves.
NL: Ryan Helsley, Cardinals
Helsley is a first-time winner of the Trevor Hoffman Award following an outstanding year that saw him author a 2.04 ERA with an MLB-high 49 saves and 10.7 K/9. The two-time All-Star surrendered a combined four home runs over the last two seasons.
Comeback Player of the Year Awards
AL: Garrett Crochet, White Sox
Crochet posted a 3.58 ERA with 209 strikeouts over 146 innings en route to becoming an All-Star for the first time. He logged just 12 2/3 innings in 2023 while recovering from Tommy John surgery.
NL: Chris Sale, Braves
Sale, the NL Cy Young favorite, recorded a 2.38 ERA with 225 strikeouts over 177 2/3 innings after being limited to 20 starts in 2023 due to injuries.
