The next few months should be very exciting in the baseball world. The playoffs have already given us some must-watch moments, and the World Series will be a great matchup no matter which of the four remaining teams advance.

Then the offseason will arrive, and with it, hopefully, plenty of transactions. With the owners expected to initiate a lockout in December, we could be in for a busy November, filled with more trades and free agent signings than usual.

In addition to all that, November is also awards season. It’s that special time on the baseball calendar when we celebrate the very best individual performances of the year that was. Either that, or we put up a stink because the players we want to celebrate aren’t getting the recognition we think they deserve. It’s fun both ways!

At Just Baseball, we don’t want you missing out on any of that fun, no matter how busy things get. So we’ve put together a comprehensive list of dates you need to know during the upcoming MLB awards season. Here’s everything you need to know.
