Seaver
That 1981 Cy Young award voting was a complete SHAM! Seaver lost by only 2 points and both San Diego sportswriters didn’t even give Tom a single vote! The Cy voting is based on a 5 (first place); 3 (second place) and 1 (third place) point system (at least back then it was). Had Seaver received at least a single second place vote, he would have been the winner. Even 2 third place votes would have placed him in a tie. Simply stated, San Diego writers completely blackballed him - an utter disgrace. Also, in 1971, Seaver compiled a remarkable 1.76 ERA, 20 wins w/a poor hitting team & led the league in strikeouts and was beaten by Jenkins who gave up a FULL RUN per game more than Seaver. Another ridiculous vote. Seaver should easily have 5 Cy Young awards. An absolute shame.
