Only things I’d change is I would have Luis Robert in that top 3 ROY.

Dont see a case for Ramirez over DJLM or Abreu. I’d probably go with Abreu though.

Bauer over Yu.

Ramirez-.292/.386/.607, .415 wOBA, 163 wRC+, 12.2 BB%, 16.9 K%, 17 HR, 10 SB, 3.4 WAR
Abreu    -.317/.370/.617, .411 wOBA, 167 wRC+,    6.9 BB%, 22.5 K%, 19 HR,  0 SB, 2.7 WAR
LeMahieu.364/.421/.590, .429 wOBA, 177 wRC+,  8.3 BB%,  9.7 K%, 10 HR,  3 SB, 2.7 WAR

LeMahieu has actually been the best hitter of the three and possibly the best hitter in the American League if you subscribe to advance stats. Ramirez is close enough hitting wise for me, and he dominates the other two in defense and base running. Its not just a hitting award and Ramirez's dominance shows in him having a 0.7 WAR lead and leading all of baseball in WAR.

 

I see the argument for Bauer over Yu. I like Darvish more because he is over half a run better than Bauer in FIP and he has a full half a run of WAR lead over Bauer in only 4 more innings. Bauer struck out more but Yu had the better walk rate. Its definitely close. Would have no problems giving it to Bauer.

Robert ended the season with a .233/.302/.436 slash. He bottomed out that last month.

Agreed on this.  I'd even throw deGrom in there as well.  Nobody could really be angry if any of the 3 win it.
