2023 MLB awards: Shohei Ohtani and Gerrit Cole up for AL honors, Craig Counsell among finalists in NL

Awards season has arrived and Monday evening Major League Baseball and the Baseball Writers Association of America introduced the 3 finalists for each and every of the 4 main awards. Those awards are Most Valuable Player, Cy Young, Rookie of the Year, and Manager of the Year.

As a reminder, those are common season awards simplest. Voting was once finished ahead of the postseason started. Also, calling those avid gamers “finalists” is a little of a misnomer. There isn’t any 2d segment to the balloting. The finalists are simply the highest 3 vote-getters for each and every award in each and every league.

Here is the awards announcement agenda. It is one award according to league, so 8 general, and all winners might be published throughout a are living MLB Network broadcast at 6 p.m. ET.  

• Monday, Nov. 13: Jackie Robinson Rookie of the Year
• Tuesday, Nov. 14: Manager of the Year
• Wednesday, Nov. 15: Cy Young
• Thursday, Nov. 16: Most Valuable Player

Here now are the 2023 MLB awards finalists. The avid gamers are indexed alphabetically for each and every award.
