    Off the top of my head...

    Dave Stewart and Curt Shilling come to mind.

    Blyleven?

    Did Jack Morris ever win one?

    Of course, I assume you mean since it came out....

    Cy Young was more then 500 games and never won a Cy Young award.

    The CYA was first bestowed in 1956, so we'll skip the many obvious candidates who played and retired before then.

    I'll throw out a few names, some still active.

    Starters: Roy Oswalt, Curt Schilling, Nolan Ryan, Bert Blyleven, Mike Mussina.

    Relievers: Dan Quisenberry, Mariano Rivera, Trevor Hoffman.

    I'd probably go with Blyleven, but any name here is a good candidate. More than one have finished as high as second in the CYA voting at least once.

    ok, with the aid of fact the Cy youthful award replaced into first presented in 1956-Walter Johnson and corporation should not be interior the communicate. My selection would be Juan Marichal from the Giants. He pitched interior the national League interior the 60's that replaced into ruled with the aid of Sandy Koufax and Bob Gibson. As for MVP, lower back it has in basic terms been in lifestyles with the aid of the Baseball Writers because 1931. My selection would be:former Braves third basemen and HOFer Eddie Matthews. lower back, he performed interior the era of greats. and each 3 hundred and sixty 5 days Eddie would flow 30HR, 100RBI. those are mine
