Election Robbery, ROY Edition

Alec Bohm got robbed. 

The Phillies rookie third baseman did not win NL Rookie of the Year tonight. Instead, the honor went to Brewers reliever Devin Williams, who pitched a total of 27 innings. Yes, they were dominant innings, but there were only 27 of them. He allowed one earned run. If there was a Rookie Pitcher of the Year Award, Williams wins, hands down.

Bohm, who finished second in the voting tied with the Padres Jake Cronenworth, was everything he was advertised to be and more. Bohm hit .338 with an .881 OPS in 44 games over 160 at bats. He hit 4 homers and drove in 23 runs and played a solid third base. 

Bohm looks like he's the real deal. He should fill the Phillies void at third base for years to come. But he should have a Rookie of the Year Award on his resume.
