I think over time the awards should be phased out. Just like in the NBA, the NFL, and the NHL they have 2 Conferences (like the 2 leagues in the MLB) and the play more games within their conference and they all have 1 award.
Now that the DH rule is gone I think they they should follow the other leagues. Also many times the award winners in the 1 league would not have even cracked the top 3 in the other league awards so it is kind of funny.
On the other hand it may never change since many player contracts have incentives on winning certain awards so they do not want to risk losing that money so the Players association may fight it
