Cy Young Award Trivia:
Saturday's Immaculate Grid included Cy Young winners who were all-stars. There were 82 choices. I assumed that it meant for award winners being all-stars in the year they won. It occurred to me, it probably doesn't happen very often that a Cy Young winners aren't also All-Stars. However, it has happened more often than I thought:
24 different pitchers were not all-stars in a year they won the award. I immediately recalled Rick Sutcliffe and Jake Arrietta, who had super second halves, after only pedestrian first halves. So, they were two of the 24...no, I'm not asking for all the others...just a few. 1.) Two different pitchers were not all-stars in two different award-winning seasons. 2.) There have been two different seasons when neither league winner was an all-star...the layup of these two was 2020, of course...what was the other year and who were the award-winning pitchers involved. PLEASE NOTE: There are frequently injury-subs and other replacements for the all-star games- this is not that. These are pitcher who are listed as All-Stars in their Cy Young seasons on BBR.

Jim Palmer wasn't an All Star in 1973 or 1976.

The two Cy Young Award winners who weren't All Stars in the same year aren't surprising once you realize who they were, LaMarr Hoyt and John Denny in 1983.

I think Saberhagen won two Cys without making the AS team.
