The story in the 2016 National League Rookie of the Year race was non-other than Trevor Story of the Colorado Rockies, but after being sidelined by an injury on July 30th, the  favorite has become Corey Seager of the Los Angeles Dodgers to win the prestigious award.

In the American League Nomar Mazara of the Texas Rangers and Tyler Naquin of the Cleveland Indians seem to be neck-neck in a battle for the award.
