MLB Manager of the Year Awards

The Baltimore Orioles’ Brandon Hyde was named the American League Manager of the Year on Tuesday, as the Miami Marlins’ Skip Schumaker won the National League award.

Manager of the year

Brandon Hyde and the Baltimore Orioles  arrived in 2023, winning 101 games and their first division title in nearly a decade.

Hyde picked up one final victory Tuesday, winning the American League Manager of the Year award on Tuesday. He beat out Texas Rangers manager Bruce Bochy and Tampa Bay Rays manager Kevin Cash for the award.

In the NL, Schumaker, a first-year manager, took top honors after the Marlins reached the postseason for the first time in a full season since 2003.

Out of 30 BBWAA votes, Hyde received 27 first-place votes and three second-place votes. The only other manager to get first-place votes was Bochy. It is worth noting that the BBWAA submits votes at the end of the regular season, so the Rangers’ World Series title run wouldn’t have helped Bochy, nor would the Orioles’ ALDS exit have hurt Hyde.
