The last time the Detroit Tigers won a regular-season MLB award was in 2025, when Tarik Skubal was named the American League Cy Young.

Here’s a breakdown of the last time the Tigers won every major MLB award:

Last Time a Tigers Player Won MVP

Miguel Cabrera won consecutive AL MVP awards for the Tigers, with his last coming in 2013.

The Tigers have had 12 MVP seasons in their franchise history.

Last Time a Tigers Player Won Cy Young

Tarik Skubal won back-to-back Cy Young trophies in 2024 and 2025, marking the sixth and seventh Cy Young campaigns in franchise history.

Skubal and Denny McClain (1968 and 1969) are the only Detroit pitchers to win the Cy Young multiple times.

Last Time a Tigers Player Won Rookie of the Year

Michael Fulmer was the last Tigers player to win Rookie of the Year, accomplishing the feat in 2016.

Detroit has had five Rookie of the Year winners all-time.

Last Time a Tigers Manager Won Manager of the Year

The most recent Detroit manager to win Manager of the Year was Jim Leyland, who earned the honor in 2006. He became the second Manager of the Year winner in Tigers history, following Sparky Anderson (1984 and 1987).
