| When you switch leagues, the voters are only supposed to pay attention to what you did in each league, you can't combine (which is totally the dumb). But you CAN combine if you're traded within-league. So Sutcliffe got all his NL Cy Young votes for what he did on the Cubs, his Indians numbers were totally ignored. Blyleven, when he was traded between the Indians and Twins, had his whole season considered in the AL vote that year. |
