Ohtani and former Los Angeles Angels teammate Mike Trout are the only active players to have won the award at least three times.

Shohei Ohtani is in the early stages of rehabbing from arthroscopic surgery to repair a labrum tear in his left shoulder following the Los Angeles Dodgers' World Series championship over the New York Yankees last month.

As the MLB offseason heats up, Shohei Ohtani says despite speculation, he is NOT recruiting Roki Sasaki to the Dodgers.
