Premio Cy Young
# Premio Cy Young

En Béisbol, el Premio Cy Young es una distinción otorgada anualmente al mejor lanzador de las grandes ligas. El premio fue otorgado por primera vez en 1956 en honor al lanzador Cy Young, quién ganó 511 juegos y es miembro del Salón de la Fama del Béisbol, quien murió en 1955. El premio fue originalmente otorgado al mejor lanzador de las grandes ligas, pero desde 1967 se otorga el mejor lanzador de cada liga (Liga Americana y Liga Nacional).

Para otorgar el premio se realiza una votación entre 28 miembros de la Asociación de escritores sobre béisbol de los Estados Unidos. Cada votante llena una boleta con los tres mejores lanzadores de cada liga. Para ponderar los votos se utiliza la siguiente fórmula: Puntuación = 5P + 3S + T, donde P, S y T es el número de votos que colocan al lanzador en primero segundo y tercer lugar respectivamente. El lanzador de cada liga con mayor puntuación recibe el premio. Si dos lanzadores tienen la misma puntuación, el premio se comparte.
