BBWAA Awards week will continue Wednesday night with the announcement of the winners of the Cy Young Awards for the National and American Leagues. The winners will be announced at 6 p.m. live on MLB Network and Atlanta Braves left-hander Max Fried is among the finalists for the Award in the National League.
While no one on the Battery Power staff has a vote in the actual awards, below are our thoughts and who we would vote for if we were given the opportunity. (Note: Roundtable participants were not required to vote for one of the BBWAA finalists)
National League: (Finalists: Sandy Alcantara, Max Fried, Julio Urias)
Kris: I think there is way too much talk of a pitcher’s workload in regards to the Cy Young Award which stems from Corbin Burnes beating out Zack Wheeler last season.
