Question: Who is a Major League Baseball player that was the winner of the American League Rookie of the Year award?
Context: The Oakland Athletics' 1987 season involved the A's finishing 3rd in the American League West with a record of 81 wins and 81 losses.  Mark McGwire set a rookie record by hitting 49 home runs.  At the beginning of the season, the word "Athletics" returned, in script lettering, to the front of the team's jerseys.  Former A's owner, Charles O. Finley banned the word "Athletics" from the club's name in the past because he felt that name was too closely associated with former Philadelphia Athletics owner Connie Mack.  In his first full Major League season, Mark McGwire hit 49 home runs, a single-season record for a rookie; he was named the American League Rookie of the Year.  McGwire would be the first American League rookie since Al Rosen of the Cleveland Indians in 1950 to lead the American League in home runs.  The 1987 season also saw the return of Reggie Jackson to Oakland. The Pacific Coast League Rookie of the Year Award is an annual award given to the best rookie player in minor league baseball's Pacific Coast League.

The Wilson Defensive Player of the Year Award is awarded annually to the best defensive player at each fielding position in Major League Baseball.  One overall Defensive Player of the Year is also selected each year.  Unlike the Rawlings Gold Glove Awards, which are voted on by major league managers and coaches, the Wilson Defensive Player of the Year Award winners are determined by statistics using sabermetrics.  In 2012, the baseball glove manufacturer Wilson created the Defensive Player of the Year Award to honor the best defensive player on each team in Major League Baseball.  One award winner was selected from each league as that league's overall Defensive Player of the Year.  Starting in 2014, the awards are given to the best defensive player at each position, regardless of league, and the overall award is given to only one player, regardless of league.  Also in 2014, a new award was created for the best Defensive Team of the Year, regardless of league. The Eastern League Rookie of the Year Award is an annual award given to the best rookie player in minor league baseball's Eastern League.

The International League Rookie of the Year Award is an annual award given to the best rookie player in minor league baseball's International League.

First issued in 2014, the awards replaced the Major League Baseball Delivery Man of the Year Award, which had been presented since 2005.  Also in 2014, the Major League Baseball Delivery Man of the Month Award was discontinued.  Though all relief pitchers are eligible, all recipients of the award have been closers.
