The 2024 Baseball Writers’ Association (BBWAA) Awards season wrapped up with a number of powerhouse winners, including Los Angeles Dodgers superstar Shohei Ohtani and New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge taking home MVP honors in their respective leagues.

Judge and Ohtani were both selected in unanimous fashion, the second consecutive season in which both league winners were the clear winners.

Ohtani joined Frank Robinson as the only two players in Major League history to win an MVP Award in both the NL and the American League. He also became the 12th player in MLB history to capture their third MVP Award.

Overall, the MVP is one of four awards handed out every year by the BBWAA, including the Cy Young, Rookie of the Year and Manager of the Year. All ballots were submitted prior to the start of the Major League Baseball postseason, with two writers representing each city from both leagues.

BBWAA Awards recap

NL MVP

Ohtani received all 30 votes, totaling in 420 points, standing well-above New York Mets infielder Francisco Lindor, who garnered the bulk of second place honors.

Arizona Diamondbacks infielder Ketel Marte received 13 third-place votes, but also five second-place votes, as some valued his offense above Lindor.

AL MVP

Judge was awarded with his second career MVP honor, with all 30 first-place votes.

Kansas City Royals shortstop Bobby Witt Jr. made an incredible strong case, but in a season dominated by Judge, he was the outright second-place winner with all 30 second-place votes. Juan Soto received 21 third-place votes, respectively.

NL Cy Young

Atlanta Braves left-hander Chris Sale received 26 first-place votes, earning his first career Cy Young Award. It was his second time as a finalist for the award.

Veteran right-hander from the Philadelphia Phillies, Zack Wheeler, was the second-place finisher, earning 25 runner-up nods.

AL Cy Young

Detroit Tigers left-hander Tarik Skubal turned in a dominant season, being the unanimous winner for the AL Cy Young with all 30 first-place votes.

Royals starter Seth Lugo had 14 second-place votes, with Cleveland Guardians reliever Emmanuel Clase coming in third.

NL Rookie of the Year

Pittsburgh Pirates rookie Paul Skenes earned 23 first-place votes, finishing with 136 total points. San Diego Padres outfielder Jackson Merrill was the second-place finisher, ending with 104 points.

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Jackson Chourio was stellar, but his 26 third-place votes put him a bit behind the pack.

AL Rookie of the Year

Yankees right-hander Luis Gil edged out Baltimore Orioles rookie Colton Cowser for the overall first-place slot. Gil, received 15 first-place votes, and a total of 106 points.

Cowser, received 13 first-place votes, ending with 101 points, respectively.

NL Manager of the Year

First-year manager for the Milwaukee Brewers, Pat Murphy, became an easy name for this award, going above preseason expectaitons. With 27 overall first-place votes, he ended with 144 total points.

San Diego Padres skipper Mike Shildt had one first-place vote, with 19 for the second spot, ending with 70 points.

AL Manager of the Year

Another fantastic season for a first-year manager, Stephen Vogt led the Guardians to a great regular season. Being named on 27 ballots as the top name in the AL, he comfortably took home the award with 142 points.

Royals manger Matt Quatraro led his team to the postseason, and his 19 second-place votes and 73 overall points were a nod to his performance.
