Bellinger named first-team All-MLB; Ryu makes second team
Cody Bellinger has been named first-team All-MLB, while Hyun-Jin Ryu made the second team.
The teams were determined by a combination of voting from fans and a decorated panel of 30 media members, broadcasters, former players and other officials throughout the game.
Bellinger was named National League MVP in 2019, slashing .305/.406/.629 with 47 home runs and 115 RBI. He also earned his first career Gold Glove Award and Silver Slugger Award while making the All-Star team for the second time in three seasons.
In a career year for Ryu, the veteran left-hander went 14–5 while taking home the ERA title (2.32). Ryu was tied for third among qualified Major Leaguers with a 6.79 strikeout-to-walk ratio and had the lowest walk rate (3.3%) in the National League.
The All-MLB Teams were unveiled Tuesday at the winter meetings.
