MLB Rookie of the Year Award
Encyclopedia
In Major League Baseball
, the Rookie of the Year Award is annually given to one player from each league as voted on by the Baseball Writers Association of America
(BBWAA). The award was established in 1940 by the Chicago chapter of the BBWAA, which selected an annual winner from 1940 through 1946. The award became national in 1947; Jackie Robinson
, the Brooklyn Dodgers
' first baseman
, won the inaugural award. One award was presented for both leagues in 1947 and 1948; since 1949, the honor has been given to one player each in the National
and American League
. Originally, the award was known as the J. Louis Comiskey
Memorial Award, named after the Chicago White Sox
owner of the 1930s. The award was renamed the Jackie Robinson Award in July 1987, 40 years after Jackie Robinson broke the baseball color line
.
Of the 128 players named Rookie of the Year, 14 have been elected to the National Baseball Hall of Fame
—Jackie Robinson, five American League players, and eight others from the National League. The award has been shared twice: once by Butch Metzger
and Pat Zachry
of the National League in 1976; and once by John Castino
and Alfredo Griffin
of the American League in 1979. Members of the Brooklyn and Los Angeles Dodgers have won the most awards of any franchise (with 16), twice the total of the New York Yankees
(eight), who have produced the most in the American League. Fred Lynn
and Ichiro Suzuki
are the only two players who have been named Rookie of the Year and Most Valuable Player in the same year, and Fernando Valenzuela
is the only player to have won Rookie of the Year and the Cy Young Award
in the same year. Sam Jethroe
is the oldest player to have won the award, at age 32, 33 days older than 2000 winner Kazuhiro Sasaki
(also 32). Craig Kimbrel
of the Atlanta Braves
and Jeremy Hellickson
of the Tampa Bay Rays
are the most recent winners.
From 1947 through 1956, each BBWAA voter used discretion as to who qualified as a rookie. In 1957, the term was first defined as someone with fewer than 75 at bat
s or 45 innings pitched
in any previous Major League season. This guideline was later amended to 90 at bats, 45 innings pitched, or 45 days on a Major League roster before September 1 of the previous year. The current standard of 130 at bats, 50 innings pitched or 45 days on the active roster of a Major League club (excluding time in military service
or on the disabled list
) before September 1 was adopted in 1971. Since 1980, each voter names three rookies: a first-place choice is given five points, a second-place choice three points, and a third-place choice one point. The award goes to the player who receives the most overall points. Edinson Volquez
received three second-place votes in 2008 balloting despite no longer being a rookie under the award's definition.
The award has drawn criticism in recent years because several players with experience in Nippon Professional Baseball (NPB) have won the award, such as Hideo Nomo
in 1995, Kazuhiro Sasaki
in 2000, and Ichiro Suzuki in 2001. The current definition of rookie status for the award is based only on Major League experience, but some feel that past NPB players are not true rookies because of their past professional experience. This issue arose in 2003 when Hideki Matsui
narrowly lost the AL award to Ángel Berroa
. Jim Souhan
of the Minneapolis Star Tribune
said he did not see Matsui as a rookie in 2003 because "it would be an insult to the Japanese league to pretend that experience didn't count." The Japan Times
ran a story in 2007 on the labeling of Daisuke Matsuzaka
, Kei Igawa
, and Hideki Okajima
as rookies, saying "[t]hese guys aren't rookies." Past winners such as Jackie Robinson, Don Newcombe
, and Sam Jethroe had professional experience in the Negro Leagues
.
