Most awards in a season/career

[josh24]

Who has the record for most awards in a season? In a career?

I don't know the answers, but Ichiro Suzuki won ROY, MVP, Gold Glove and Silver Slugger in the same season: 4 awards. Seattle tied the wins in a season's record and he received more than 3 million votes for the All-Star. Maybe the best rookie season ever.

Barry Bonds has won 33 awards.

MVP - 7 times
Major League Player of the Year - 3 times
Hank Aaron Award - 3 times
Gold Glove - 8 times
Silver Slugger - 12 times
