MLB Cy Young Award Winners

The Cy Young Award is given annually to the best pitcher in each league. From its establishment in 1956 until 1966, it was presented to the best pitcher in Major League Baseball. Since 1967, there is one winner from each of the American and National leagues. From 1956 to 1958, a pitcher was not allowed to win the Cy Young Award twice. The Baseball Writers' Association of America (BBWAA) votes on the Cy Young Award at the conclusion of each season before the postseason starts.
