The
Carolina League announced today that
Kannapolis Cannon Ballers left-hander
Tyler Schweitzer has been selected as the league’s
Outstanding Pitcher Award winner for the 2024 season.
Schweitzer dominated throughout the year, finishing with a stellar 10–6 record and emerging as one of the league’s most reliable arms.
Schweitzer authored a brilliant 2.10 ERA across 22 starts, logging 124 innings while allowing just 77 hits. He struck out 156, walked 61, and kept opponents to a mere .178 batting average, cementing his status as the league’s most overpowering starter.
His performance was emphatically recognized by voters, who awarded him 11 of 12 first-place votes.
Myrtle Beach’s Sam Armstrong finished a distant second, followed by
