MiLBY Awards

The Minor League Baseball Yearly (MiLBY) Awards are given annually to the most outstanding players, teams, single-game performances, plays, moments, homers, and promotions of the year. Initiated by Minor League Baseball in 2005[1] as the "This Year in Minor League Baseball Awards", the awards were renamed the "MiLBY Awards" in 2008.[2] Baseball fans select the nominees for and winners of the awards, via the online voting system on MiLB.com, the official website of Minor League Baseball.

This article is about the baseball awards. For the English hamlet, see Milby.
