Ohtani Wins 2024 NL Players Choice Award

This one is dated, but in late October 2024, the MLB players voted Shohei Ohtani to the National League Players Choice Award. The award recognizes the National League's Most Outstanding Player:

Ohtani has made a career out of doing things we’ve never seen achieved at the MLB level, and he did it again in his first year with the Dodgers. Ohtani became the first 50-50 player in MLB history, ultimately ending up with 54 homers and 59 stolen bases. He also led the Majors with 134 runs and was atop the NL with a 1.036 OPS. The reigning AL MVP set himself up to take home that award in the NL, all while rehabbing from right elbow surgery that kept him off the mound this year.
