Baseball Awards

Awards given to those people who make significant contributions or reach the highest levels of professionalism within the game of baseball serve two purposes. First, each annual award represents the highest honor players, managers, and other professionals can receive to celebrate greatness. Additionally, the awards serve as baseball’s time capsule – triggering memories within those who love the sport, allowing them to fondly remember the heroes who have made baseball our National Pastime.

Expanding much like the game of baseball itself, the number of awards celebrating baseball accomplishments has grown exponentially over time. Where once only one award chronicled the greatest achievements of the game’s greatest players, now a multitude of awards serve to note achievements of a growing baseball industry – from elements of game play in the majors, minors, and collegiate levels, to managers and general managers, and now the members of the broadcasting, newsprint, and public relations fields.

Baseball Almanac is pleased to present the most comprehensive selection of baseball honors and awards found on the Internet. Each award selection lists all of the recipients, a brief history of the award, other interesting facts, and – in some cases – detailed voting results for the award.
