Carson Benge is crushing it for the Mets—13 homers, 47 RBIs, 18 steals, and a solid 2.5 WAR in just his first season—but he’s flying under the radar for NL Rookie of the Year. With odds at 3500, he trails teammate Nolan McLean and lags far behind frontrunner J.J. Wetherholt, whose 4.3 WAR and playoff-bound Cardinals give him a narrative edge. Benge’s late-season surge has been impressive, but catching Wetherholt will require a major leap—and time is running out. For the Mets, a win could net them a crucial bonus draft pick to fuel their rebuild.
