This deserves a split. Buck's the first-ever Mets winner.

A Met winning a major award deserves its very own thread? Are you sure?





A close vote btw in a spread out field where five different guys picked up multiple first place votes:

Buck 77 points - 8 1st place votes, 10 2nd, 7 3rd

Dave Roberts LAD -- 57 pts; 8/4/5

Brian Snitker ATL -- 55 pts, 7/5/5

Oliver Marmol StL -- 44 pts, 5/4/7

Rob Thompson PHI -- 36 pts, 2/7/5

Bob Melvin SDP -- 1 point, 1 3rd place vote



First NYM winner (no Gil? no Davey? no Bobby?) leaving only the Brewers without a MoY in the NL (and they spent most of their time not being in the NL)







Terry Francona, by a little more decisive margin, was the AL winner

Tito CLE -- 112 pts, 17/9/0

Brandon Hyde BAL -- 79 pts, 9//97

Scott Servais SEA -- 43 pts, 1/8/14

Dusty Baker HOU -- 31 pts, 3/3/7

Aaron Boone NYY -- 4 pts, 0/1/1

Kevin Cash TBR -- 1 point, 1 3rd place vote

Hodges couldnt have ever won MOY because it was first awarded in 1983 when Gil was already dead. I imagine that Hodges would've been a lock in '69 had the award existed then. George Bamberger might've won it had the award existed just one year earlier.

Hodges was The Sporting News's NL choice in 1969.

Johnson amazingly won the award not with the Mets or Reds or Orioles or Dodgers, but with the Nats.
