    Abreu is the first American League player ever to receive both honors in his first month in the majors. #SoxPride

    Abreu set major-league rookie records in home runs, RBI, extra-base hits and total bases through April.

    He definitely deserved the AL ROTM over Tanaka.

     

    I'm not sure about Player of the Month though. Abreu was 12th in the AL in wRC+, behind both Adam Dunn and Dayan Viciedo.

    Has he been keeping this up, or has it been limited to the nonsense in Colorado (hopefully)?

    I'm somewhat surprised he won Rookie of the Month.

     

    I'm SHOCKED he won Player of the Month.

     

    Statistically, he didn't deserve either. But the voters have never let statistics get in their way before. Congrats, Yogi!
