AL Rookie of The Year Odds Favorite: Jacob Wilson

Jacob Wilson has tightened his grip on the AL Rookie of the Year race, now sitting as the overwhelming favorite at -380. The Athletics shortstop continues to impress with elite ability, sharp plate discipline, and veteran-level poise. He’s the clear bright spot in an otherwise rebuilding Oakland lineup, providing steady production both at the top of the order and in the field.

Jac Caglianone is the next name worth watching. The two-way phenom is climbing the oddsboard thanks to his massive power and dynamic presence at the plate. If he keeps mashing and contributes in any capacity on the mound, he could give Wilson a real challenge down the stretch.

Jasson Dominguez, still sitting in third, remains one of the most intriguing names in the mix. “The Martian” has flashed his signature power in limited action, but inconsistency and injuries have stalled his momentum. He’s a high-ceiling player whose odds reflect the possibility of a breakout second half.

NL Rookie of the Year Odds Favorites

Drake Baldwin has emerged as the new frontrunner in the NL Rookie of the Year race, now priced at +220. The Braves catcher is riding a hot bat and earning everyday reps behind the plate, giving him a clear edge in exposure and opportunity. His combination of gap-to-gap power and improving plate discipline makes him a legitimate threat to hold this spot the rest of the way.

Agustin Ramirez continues to hang near the top of the board at +400, thanks to a strong all-around offensive profile. The Marlins catcher came out of nowhere to enter this race, but he’s proven it’s no fluke. Ramirez has been a steady presence in Miami’s lineup, blending skills with surprising pop.

Matt Shaw and Chad Patrick have surged into the conversation as well, both sitting at +850. Shaw has shown flashes of offensive upside in Chicago, while Patrick has delivered a string of solid starts that put him firmly on the radar. Both offer value plays if Baldwin cools off or falters.
