Walter Johnson but that was called the Chalmers award not the MVP. The first pitcher to be named MVP by the BBWAA was Lefty Grove in 1931

some persons want to declare that words make little distinction, however the MVP award is small data of the skill of words. via calling it the "maximum respected participant" award we've been blessed with seventy 5 years of what that surely potential. there has been a trustworthy share of controversy by using the years specially because of the fact human beings interpret how the award might desire to be..nicely...presented. If it have been noted as "participant of the only year" or "Batter of the only year" or some thing extra particular then baseball followers would not be embroiled in this controversy on an very almost annual foundation. i've got rambled long sufficient. to respond to your query: sure, I do have confidence yet another pitcher will sometime win it because of the fact they're eligible.
