Corbin Carroll Named Unanimous Winner of NL Rookie of the Year

Carroll's Historic Season Leads Diamondbacks to World Series, Extra Draft Choice

  • Arizona outfielder Corbin Carroll has been named the unanimous winner of the National League Rookie of Year award, marking the 14th unanimous choice in the National League in the 74-year history of the BBWAA voting.
  • Carroll had a historic season, becoming the first player to reach 25 home runs, 54 stolen bases, 30 doubles, and 10 triples in the same season.
  • The Diamondbacks will receive an extra draft choice due to Carroll's achievement, as per the latest labor agreement between owners and players.
  • Carroll's performance also led the Diamondbacks to the World Series, following an 84-78 regular season.
  • Despite Carroll's impressive performance, some believe that Eury Pérez, who placed 7th in the NL ROY race, has the highest ceiling of any rookie.
