The American League Comeback Player of the Year race has intensified, with Jacob deGrom of the Texas Rangers leading the pack at -260 odds. With a remarkable 7-2 record, a 2.24 ERA, and 87 strikeouts over 15 starts, deGrom has displayed dominance on the mound this season. Nevertheless, concerns linger about his durability, as he hasn't pitched over 30 games since 2019.

Byron Buxton from the Minnesota Twins stands as a formidable contender, priced at +430. Coming off a strong season with 102 games played despite injury setbacks, Buxton has showcased impressive power with 17 home runs in just 62 games this year, compared to his career-high of 28 homers in 92 games last season. His current performance, highlighted by a .280 batting average and 47 RBIs, positions him as a serious threat to dethrone deGrom by season's end.
