Time for a hint -- The last CYA was in the early sixties. Jay won 20 games for the 1961 pennant winners, but wins are a meaningless stat: he was lucky they let him keep playing...

Bob Purkey
He's the only guy I can think of who pitched around that time. My Reds knowledge pre-1970 isn't great. Hell, it's not that great pre-1990 either.

Yes, Purkey's the last name on the list with a single vote in 1962.

Seaver did get first place votes in two other years as well. I know the first was in the year he was dealt 78 I think, he was much more effective with the Reds that year then the Mets and pitched more innings as well for the Reds. The other I want to say was 80.

Jay did not get a first place vote in 1961. There was only the combined Major League award at that time, and Whitey Ford won it, with nine votes, seven for Warren Spahn, and two for Frank Lary of the Tigers.

The other I want to say was 80. I stand corrected, Seaver received two votes in 1977. 1978 was off year for him and he wasn't considered. 1979 he finished fourth wihtout a first place vote which were split pretty evenly between Bruce Sutter of the Cubs and Joe Niekro of the Astros. He did not get any votes in 1980, 1982, or 1983.
