Mookie Betts, last year’s AL MVP, is fifth in the current outfield rankings with 777,642 votes. Betts is in range for the third and final outfield spot, which is currently held by Houston’s Michael Brantley (924,173 votes). Betts has been an All-Star starter the last three seasons and is one of the premier all-around players in the game.

Third baseman Rafael Devers, who is having a breakout season, is in fourth place at the hot corner.

Catcher Christian Vázquez, another Boston player en route to a career year, is fifth at his position.
