cy young awards
In 1956 the BBWAA, prodded by Commissioner Ford Frick, created the Cy Young Award in order to annually honor the best pitcher in the major leagues. The award was named after Cy
Young, the all-time leader in pitching wins (and losses), who had died in 1955. The impetus for the award’s creation was the lack of support pitchers had been receiving in MVP balloting.
Ironically, the creation of the Cy Young would further reduce that support. In 1967 voters began selecting one Cy Young winner in each league. In 1970 a three-place ballot replaced the
original one-place ballot. See page 138 for list of Ex Post Facto Cy Young Awards.

cy young awards
Here we present our list of “Ex Post Facto” awards for the Cy Young Award. Going back in time, we have chosen the players that we think would have won the award if it had been given
out then (or if the awards had been given out in both leagues). Note that these Ex Post Facto awards do not necessarily represent who we think “should” have won. Instead, we have
tried to apply the standards of times past and, based on what the writers historically valued, we have chosen who we think “would have won” if the writers of the time had been given the
opportunity to vote. See page XX for list of BWAA Cy Young Awards.
