Major League Baseball hands out a Rookie of the Year award in each league every season, but Walker Buehler wants to change that.

The Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher believes there should be separate Rookie of the Year awards for pitchers and hitters.

"I personally think there should be a rookie Cy Young as well. Not to be like, 'Oh, I should get all this stuff,' but I was third in the Rookie of the Year to Ronald Acuna, Jr. and Juan Soto," Buehler said on the 'Just Baseball Show.'

"Pretty generational, but also neither of them pitch, so who am I competing against? ... Let's have a Fernando Valenzuela Award, best rookie pitcher ever." 

Not counting Shohei Ohtani, only one pitcher has been named Rookie of the Year since 2017, though five pitchers have been the Rookie of the Year runner-up during that time.
