The Most Valuable Player award


The Major League Baseball Most Valuable Player Award (MVP) is an annual Major League Baseball (MLB) award given to one outstanding player in each league. Since 1931, it has been awarded by the Baseball Writers Association of America (BBWAA). The winner receives the Kenesaw Mountain Landis Memorial Baseball Award, which is named in honor of the first commissioner of MLB who served from 1920 to 1944.[1] MVP voting takes place before the post-season but the results are not announced until after the World Series. The BBWAA began polling three writers in each league city in 1938, reducing that number to two per league city in 1961.[2]

Among infielders, first basemen have won the most MVPs, followed by second basemen, third basemen, and shortstops. Of the twenty-three pitchers who have won the award, fourteen are right-handed while nine are left-handed. Alex Rodriguez is the only player to win the award with two different teams at two difference positions.[3] Barry Bonds has won the most often (seven times) and the most consecutively (2001–2004).[4] Nine players have won three times.[5]

The New York Yankees have the most winning players with 22, followed by the St. Louis Cardinals with 20 winners. Five franchises have not had a winner. The most recent recipients are Joe Mauer in the American League and Albert Pujols in the National League.[6]

Barry Bonds' seven MVP awards are the most for any individual player.

[edit] Chalmers Award (1911–1914)

Ty Cobb won the first American League Chalmers Award in 1911 and was at the center of the controversy over the earlier 1910 award.

Prior to the 1910 season, Hugh Chalmers of Chalmers Automobile announced he would present a Chalmers Model 30 automobile to the player with the highest batting average in the Majors at the end of the season. The 1910 race for best average in the American League was between the Detroit Tigers' widely disliked Ty Cobb and Nap Lajoie of the Cleveland Indians. On the last day of the season, Lajoie overtook Cobb's batting average with seven bunt hits against the St. Louis Browns. American League President Ban Johnson said a recalculation showed that Cobb had won the race anyway, and Chalmers ended up awarding cars to both players.[2]

The following season, Chalmers created the Chalmers Award. A committee of baseball writers were to convene after the season to determine the "most important and useful player to the club and to the league". As the award was not as effective at advertising as Chalmers has hoped, it was discontinued after 1914.[2]

[edit] League Awards (1922–1929)

Babe Ruth was ineligible for the award in his famous 1927 season by the rules of the American League award because he had previously won in 1923.

In 1922 the American League created a new award to honor "the baseball player who is of the greatest all-around service to his club".[13] Voters were required to select one player from each team and player-managers and prior award winners were disqualified. These flaws resulted in the award being dropped after 1928. The National League award, without these restrictions, lasted from 1924 to 1929.[2]

[edit] Baseball Writers Association of America's Most Valuable Player (1931–present)

The BBWAA first awarded the modern MVP award after the 1931 season, adopting the format the National League used to distribute its league award. One writer in each city with a team filled out a ten-place ballot, with ten points for the recipient of a first-place vote, nine for a second-place vote, and so on. In 1938, the BBWAA raised the amount of voters to three per city and gave 14 points for a first-place vote. The only significant change since then occurred in 1961, when the number of voters was lowered to two per league city.[2]

Jimmie Foxx was the first player to win three MVP awards.
