Max Scherzer is a finalist for the AL Cy Young, along with the Rangers’ Yu Darvish and the Mariners’ Hisashi Iwakuma. The winner will be announced on Wednesday, Nov. 13.

Scherzer and Cabrera were honored with similar recognitions in the Players Choice Awards on Monday.

Shortstop Jose Iglesias is a finalist for the AL Rookie of the Year, along with the Tampa twosome of Chris Archer and Wil Myers. The winner will be unveiled Monday, Nov. 11. Iglesias was a finalist for the Players Choice AL Outstanding Rookie award, which went to Myers.

Boston’s John Farrell, Cleveland’s Terry Francona and Oakland’s Bob Melvin were the finalists for the AL Manager of the Year award.
