Max Muncy
Player of the Week Award
For the first time since Freddie Freeman in September of last year, Muncy, who is currently in his eighth season in the Major League, wins the Player of the Week Award. After winning in April 2021 and going on to finish in fourth place in the voting for AL Rookie of the Year, Garcia now holds his second Player of the Week award in his career. Since Nathaniel Lowe received the honor in August of last year, Garcia is the first Ranger to receive it.
