I've been doing top ten MVP, top five CYA, top three Mariano Rivera Award, and top three ROY since 1941, so I'm going to post the results here. Should be an interesting way to look back on who has dominated my league from 1941 through 1955. 1954 and 1955 have been posted already above, so this will run from 1941 through 1953.

Top ten AL MVP for 1941:

1. Sam Leever, 27, PHA, RHSP
2. Shoeless Joe Jackson, 22, WS1, LF/CF/RF
3. Jorge Orta, 23, PHA, 2B/DH
4. Bill Stoneman, 27, PHA, RHSP
5. Ray Demmitt, 25, SLA, RF
6. James Burke, 27, NYY, RHSP
7. Baldy Louden, 23, CLE, SS/2B/3B/DH
8. Dazzy Vance, 36, SLA, RHSP
9. Ed Beatin, 22, WS1, LHSP
10. Speed Martin, 27, SLA, RHSP

Top five AL CYA for 1941:

1. Sam Leever, 27, PHA, RHSP
2. Bill Stoneman, 27, PHA, RHSP
3. James Burke, 27, NYY, RHSP
4. Dazzy Vance, 36, SLA, RHSP
5. Ed Beatin, 22, WS1, LHSP

Top three AL Mariano Rivera Award for 1941:

1. Mike A Schultz, 28, PHA, RHRP
2. Ralph Caldwell, 21, BOS, LHRP
3. Dutch Henry, 27, NYY, LHRP

Top three AL Jackie Robinson Award for 1941:

1. Kerry Wood, 19, NYY, RHSP
2. Solly Drake, 25, NYY, RF/CF/LF
3. Donie Bush, 19, PHA, SS/DH

Both the Athletics and the Browns had three top ten MVP candidates in 1941, and they ended up matching up in the ALCS with the first place Athletics defeating the 2nd place Browns 4 games to 2. The A's would go on to get spanked 4 games to 1 by their crosstown rivals, the Phillies in the World Series that year, but they had a very solid year.
