Major League Baseball won’t announce the winners of its year-end awards for the 2024 season until November, but news outlets across the sport have already started announcing their nominees. Lately Sports News named Milwaukee Brewers general manager Matt Arnold executive of the year and Pat Murphy manager of the year.
How are The Sporting News awards determined?
Sporting News has been presenting year-end baseball awards since 1936. The 2024 winners were selected based on votes from players, managers and executives. Votes were collected in mid-September.
Milwaukee Brewers general manager Matt Arnold was named MLB Executive of the Year
Matt Arnold won the Sporting News executive of the year category. Most projections didn’t have the Brewers repeating as division champions this year, but Matt Arnold showed brilliance by bringing back contributors in the Corbin Burnes trade, locking up Jackson Chourio before his MLB debut, signing free agent Rhys Hoskins and promoting Pat Murphy from bench coach to manager.
Milwaukee Brewers manager Pat Murphy was named manager of the year
Among National League managers, Pat Murphy was awarded manager of the year. His only previous management experience before this year at the substantial league level was interim. Still, he managed to get the Brewers playing winning baseball and focusing on “winning tonight.”
MLB will also present awards for executive of the year and manager of the year. Last year it took place in mid-November, so stay tuned to see if Matt Arnold and Pat Murphy win there as well.
