MLB teams might be shifting into Hot Stove mode already, but that doesn’t mean we’re done talking about the 2024 season. It’s time for individual hardware to be handed out for the National League and the American League in recognition of accomplishments during the regular season.
Will Aaron Judge and Shohei Ohtani be unanimous MVP winners? With seven top-six Cy Young Award finishes in his fantastic career, can Chris Sale finally win the big one? We also have the National League Rookie of the Year race, where Pirates phenom Paul Skenes and Padres outfielder Jackson Merrill are both worthy.
Below you’ll find everything you need to know about the Most Valuable Player Award, the Cy Young Award, the Rookie of the Year Award, and the Manager of the Year Award.
