Forget rookie of the year. Mike Trout clinched that in May. Now the Los Angeles Angels outfielder is doing the same in the debate for American League MVP.

Despite spending most of April in the minors, Trout leads the majors in runs (96) and steals (39). Entering Tuesday’s games, he is second in baseball in OPS (1.013), leads the AL in batting average (.343) and has 24 home runs and 70 RBIs.
