Season 59 Organization of the Year

In the Yount League, the most esteemed honor is the Organization of the Year award. According to league rules, we seek owners with well-rounded organizations, which is why there is a minimum win rate requirement for the minor leagues. The Baltimore Orioles reclaimed the top spot in Season 59, amassing 848 points and winning the award for the second time in three years, marking the sixth win overall for vanrip77, who mysteriously left after the season. The Orioles reached the playoffs at every level and won the Double-A World Series, which provided enough points to surpass the Rays. The Orioles achieved the highest number of wins with 552.

At Get Up Get Up Get Outta Here Gone, we believe that the Owner of the Year should demonstrate outstanding leadership by maintaining a robust farm system and positioning their Major League team for a playoff run. Additionally, their lower-level teams should be actively competing for minor league championships. The winner of the Get Up Get Up Get Outta Here Gone Owner of the Year Award should consistently keep teams competitive at all levels.

The owner who gathers the most points will be awarded the prestigious Get Up, Get Up, Get Outta Here Gone Owner of the Year Award.

Three franchises did not make the playoffs at any level, down two from last season.

The Nationals and Guardians made the most significant advances, rising 12 spots and ten spots, respectively. The Rays narrowly missed securing the top position despite making the playoffs at every level; their dominance in the Rookie League and a World Series win didn't garner enough points. The Rangers moved out of probation status by securing 7th place in the Organization of the Year standings. The Brewers, despite being the Major League World Series Champions, experienced the largest drop, ending up in 15th place, but they can find comfort in their World Series victory.
