context_page_description: The Pacific Coast League Pitcher of the Year Award is an annual award given to the best pitcher in Minor League Baseball's Pacific Coast League based on their regular season performance. Though the league was established in 1903, the award was not created until 1957. It was issued only sporadically through 1974 before being discontinued from 1975 to 2000. From 1927 to 2000, PCL pitchers were eligible to win the Most Valuable Player Award. A total of 10 pitchers won the MVP Award. The Pitcher of the Year Award was revived in 2001 and has since been awarded annually. Managers and broadcasters from the 16 Pacific Coast League teams and media representatives in each city across the league vote for the winner of the award.
