Jim Maloney
Mario Soto
Don't remember the dates of their best seasons: Maloney was a twenty-game winner when that was key, and Soto was a phenom...

Johnny Cueto - 2012 Tom Seaver - not sure the exact year, had to be in the late 70s/early 80s. 1980? Two for two! Seaver had eight first-place votes, and barely lost the CYA in 1981 to Fernando Valenzuela of the Dodgers. |

Pete Schoreck 95 Danny Jackson 89 Sorry, no. 1995 Greg Maddux of the Braves swept all 28 first-place votes. Ditto in 1989 when Orel Hershiser of the Dodgers swept all 24 votes. Both Jackson and Schourek finished second in the voting. |

Jim Maloney Mario Soto Don't remember the dates of their best seasons: Maloney was a twenty-game winner when that was key, and Soto was a phenom... You got one and missed one. Despite many fine seasons, Maloney never received a first-place CYA vote. Soto did receive two in the 1983 campaign, finishing second John Denny of the Phillies. |

Spot on, schellis!
Jack Billingham received two first-place votes in 1973 in his 19-10 campaign for the BRM.
Jose Rijo got a vote in the 1991 campaign.

Soto had two votes in 1983, but that was already succesfully guessed.

Time for a hint -- The last CYA was in the early sixties.
