was thinking year + team might make a majority of this quiz way too easy. But then again, there are a lot of second place guys that would be tough to guess without any guidance. Curious to see what others say. Also, just a note...this only went as far back as 1970 when they changed the voting to the way it is done now.

Good quiz. One typo I found: 1976 should be 1977.

A few problems: Sparky Lyle won in 1977, Chris Carpenter won in 2005 and Trevor Hoffman came in second in 1998. Good idea though.

You should make the years in some kind of order. I didn't see 2009 and after I clicked give up Im like WTF. Good Game though

Some of the years are split up, and that's kind of distracting, but good quiz.

I think the teams would help; as you say, a lot of the 2nd place guys are hard to guess. What happened in 1984? You only have Quiz listed.
