Mets lobby for 'superstar' Carson Benge to win NL Rookie of the Year

Following a closing loss to wrap up their campaign in Washington, New York figures are backing standout outfielder Carson Benge for National League Rookie of the Year recognition. The twenty-three-year-old finished his debut campaign hitting .282 with twenty home runs and twenty-two stolen bases, joining his club's twenty-twenty club while earning high praise from skipper Andy Green and teammate Juan Soto.

Benge faces notable competition in the voting from rival sluggers Sal Stewart and TJ Rumfield.
