Best player to never win major award?

[BubbaDrew]

What is the best player you have ever seen never win a Cy Young or MVP award?

I'd have to say:

Sammy Sosa, RF... Career stats of: .288 Avg, 635 HR, 1869 RBI, 1741 Runs, 2463 Hits, in 17 Seasons, no GG, No ROY, No MVP. Only 3 ASG. 6 50 HR seasons.

Who is yours?

That's bizarre. But indicative of his career, always second fiddle to someone, though still a great player.

Sammy won the NL MVP in '98 with 30 of the 32 votes.

Best example I can think of would be Nolan Ryan

Jeez, I thought it would be obvious... I was talking about in a sim you did, not in real life. Everyone knows Sammy won it in 98.

Well then. *humph*

In BB2K6, Sammy should be credited with the MVP he won in 1998.

Or did you start the sim before 1998?

Well, in real life, the winningest pitcher of all-time never won a Cy Young award........Cy Young. Always a fun trivia question...

This thread sure did die for a long time.

Well, not that long but a lot for this part of the boards.
