1980 Awards

Of course, most championship teams have many good players.  Without championship players, there would be no championship team!  The 1980 Phillies were no different.  They had a good combination of pitching, defense and hitting, and it showed in the voting for various league and postseason awards in 1980.  The following is a list of the major awards won (or at least nearly won) in 1980.
