New York Yankees outfielder Bellinger and teammate Rice have been named finalists for the 2026 Silver Slugger Award, recognizing the best offensive players at each position in Major League Baseball.
The announcement came on November 6, 2026, as part of the annual selection process that honors top hitters in both the American and National Leagues.
Bellinger, a former National League MVP, and Rice, a rising star, represent the Yankees among the finalists voted on by managers and coaches.
Winners will be revealed later this month.
