Points are the voting weights recorded in the source; the maximum is the most any player could have earned that season. Winners are the declared award winners, and when the vote ended in a tie both winners are marked. Voting coverage runs from 1911 for MVP, 1947 for Rookie of the Year and 1956 for the Cy Young Award; the source stages no vote rows for 1915-1921 or 1930. The source stages voting data for only these three awards; Gold Glove, Manager of the Year and other awards have no vote rows and get no tables here.
