Perhaps in another version there could be an option to have the awards chosen either realistically, or more sabermetrically (which I guess is less realistic).

I claim that WAR is the realistic route. Before anyone gets their nose out of joint I have no problem if a lower WAR player wins if for example his team wins the division or has the best record. I'm seeing this in my current leagues for both MVP and Cy Young now so there is absolutely nothing wrong with the current process IMO.
