Pacific Coast League Most Valuable Player Award Awarded for Pacific Coast League's Regular Season MVP Country United States Reward Charles H. Graham Plaque
(formerly a cash reward)[1]First awarded 1927 Currently held by Bryan LaHair The Pacific Coast League Most Valuable Player Award (MVP) is an annual award given to the best player in minor league baseball's Pacific Coast League. Managers from the 16 Pacific Coast League teams vote for the winner of the award, which is then combined with 16 votes from various general managers, broadcasters, and media representatives around the league to determine a winner.[2][3][4] The award was formerly voted upon by writers from The Sporting News.[5][6] In 1927, Lefty O'Doul won the first ever Pacific Coast League MVP award.[7] No player was selected from 1928 to 1931. In 1932, the award returned, going to Jigger Statz. For six seasons in the 1970s (1973, 1975–79) the award was suspended. In 1948, Charlie Graham donated a plaque, which was named in his honor, to be awarded annually to the league's MVP.[1][8]
First basemen including the reigning Pacific Coast League MVP, Bryan LaHair, with 19 winners, have won the most among infielders, followed by third basemen (5), second basemen (3), and shortstops (2). Seven players who won the award were catchers. Twenty-five outfielders have won the MVP award, the most of any position. A total of 10 pitchers have won the MVP award, all of them being right-handed. The last pitcher to win was Steve Mintz in 1996. The Pacific Coast League now has a Most Valuable Pitcher Award, which was established in 2001. Steve Bilko has the record for most MVP award wins with three (1955–57).[9] Sandy Alomar, Jr., and Les Scarsella have both won the MVP award twice. Scarsella first won the award in 1944 as a first baseman and then won his second in 1946 as an outfielder.
Two Pacific Coast League MVP award winners, Joe DiMaggio and Tony Pérez, have gone on to be inducted in the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum.[10] Seven players from the Los Angeles Angels and the Las Vegas Stars/51s have been selected for the MVP award, more than any other team in the league, followed by the Albuquerque Dukes and San Diego Padres (6); the Hollywood Stars (5); the Oakland Oaks, Sacramento River Cats, San Francisco Seals, and Spokane Indians (4); the Calgary Cannons, Salt Lake City Bees/Salt Lake Stingers, Seattle Rainiers, and Tucson Toros/Sidewinders (3); the Edmonton Trappers, Oklahoma RedHawks/Oklahoma City 89ers, and Sacramento Solons (2); and the Eugene Emeralds, Fresno Grizzlies, Indianapolis Indians, Iowa Cubs, Omaha Royals, Tacoma Giants, and the Tulsa Oilers (1).
Twelve players from the Brooklyn/Los Angeles Dodgers Major League Baseball (MLB) organization have won the MVP award, more than any other, followed by the Chicago Cubs organization (9), the Oakland Athletics organization (4), the San Diego Padres organization (4), the San Francisco Giants organization (4), the Chicago White Sox organization (3), the Houston Astros organization (3), the Pittsburgh Pirates organization (3), the Seattle Mariners organization (3), the St. Louis Cardinals organization (3), the Anaheim/California Angels organization (2), the Cincinnati Reds organization (2), the Philadelphia Phillies organization (2), the Texas Rangers organization (2), the Toronto Blue Jays organization (2), the Arizona Diamondbacks organization (1), the Cleveland Indians organization (1), the Kansas City Royals organization (1), and the New York Yankees organization (1). Thirteen MVP award winners were not members of any MLB organization.
