TSN Most Valuable Players Winners

By Patrick Mondout

The Sporting News announced League Most Valuable Player awards following each season from 1930-1945. As they developed separate Pitcher of the Year and Player of the Awards, they perhaps felt the award was redundant by the end of World War II.

Al Simmons is sometimes listed as the NL winner of the award for 1929, but TSN simply asked the same beat writers who voted for the discontinued League MVP awards who they would have voted for. Here are the actual winners:

MVP Awards
1930 NL Bill Terry
1930 AL Joe Cronin
1931 NL Chuck Klein
1931 AL Lou Gehrig
1932 NL Chuck Klein
1932 AL Jimmie Foxx
