Other notable young winners of the award include Willie Mays at age 20, Johnny Bench at 20, Frank Robinson at 20, Mike Trout at 20 (youngest ever in the AL), and Lou Whitaker at 21, Cal Ripken Jr. at 21, and Darryl Strawberry at age 21 the year before Gooden won.

As a Mets fan I'm glad I didn't mess that one up. 
Very deserving if Carroll and Gunnar win. Those guys are fun to watch !
