What happened: Chase Meidroth was listed among American League finalists at second base for 2026. He ranked first in fielding run value with 10 and third in outs above average with 8 among AL second basemen.

Why it matters: The nod marks defensive recognition at a premium middle-infield spot. It puts the second baseman in line for offseason awards attention as the 2026 postseason continues.

By the numbers: 1st in FRV (10) and 3rd in OAA (8) among AL second basemen.

What to watch: Winners will be named later in the awards cycle. The announcement will settle the AL second-base race.
