Astros slugger Yordan Alvarez named American League MVP after nearly winning 2026 Triple Crown
Astros designated hitter Yordan Alvarez has won the 2026 American League MVP, the BBWAA announced Thursday night. The Baseball Writers' Association of America ballot uses two voters from each of the 15 chapters housing AL teams. Each voter submits a ballot with 10 players, ranked 1-10. A first-place vote gets a player 14 points, while second place earns nine, third place eight, etc., until a 10th-place vote earns one point. Ballots are due before the playoffs begin, as this is a regular-season award.
