Correct, Paul Skenes is the most recent answer, having been drafted #1 overall in 2023 and then winning ROY the following year.

A fine guess, as Cole was drafted #1 overall, but he didn't get any ROY votes.

Two more to go, and they are both position players, although only one of them was much of a fielder.

I believe Bob Horner is one (possibly the non-fielder mentioned).

Bob Horner is correct. Horner was drafted #1 out of Arizona State in '78 and immediately entered the Majors where he won ROY at age 20.

Yes, Carlos Correa was drafted #1 overall out of Puerto Rico in 2012 and won ROY 3 years later also at age 20.

Well done everyone!

You got all 5: Bryce Harper, Darryl Strawberry, Paul Skenes, Bob Horner and Carlos Correa
