While remaining victorious, Zac Gallen’s margin was considerably smaller than the last time he won the award. In 2022, Gallen was voted Pitcher of the Year, but on that occasion, he was chosen on more than ninety percent of the ballots. This time? He obtained less than one-third of the votes, getting 31%. Each of the five candidates were in double-digits, with Brandon Pfaadt (22%) and Ryne Nelson (20%) helping make this year’s victory rather short on whelm for Gallen. Still, he becomes the first three-time winner since we started these awards in 2007, breaking the five-way tie he had been in, with Merrill Kelly, Zack Greinke, Patrick Corbin and Brandon Webb.
