In 1950, the Phillies’ Jim Konstanty was the first relief pitcher to win the award, posting a 16-7 record, a 2.66 ERA, and 22 saves.
OPS+: On-base plus slugging, adjusted so that a score of 100 is league average.
WAR: Wins Above Replacement represents the number of wins a player added to a team above what a replacement-level (typically minor league) player would add. In Baseball-reference’s calculation, a score of 8 or higher is MVP-quality, and 5 or higher is all-star quality.
