American League Names González Best Player
Tuesday, November 3rd , 2026
He may have less experience than most of his Major League Baseball peers, but that didn't slow Raúl González down at all in 2026.
At the age of 23, the Detroit left fielder has been named the winner of the American League Most Valuable Player Award.
He had a .316 batting average and a .378 on-base percentage this year. In 152 games he piled up 180 hits, 42 doubles, 4 triples, 32 home runs, 108 RBIs and 91 runs scored.
"I'm blown away by the season I was able to put together," he said. "I'm looking forward to trying to do it all again next year."
Luis Camacho of the Texas Rangers finished second in voting, while Augusto Ramírez of the Los Angeles Angels finished third.
