Hmmm...that's pretty interesting. He didn't exceed the rookie limit, so technically he's a rookie the next season. A then he wins rookie of the year both seasons.

Interesting...probably should happen. Will look into a fix.

Seems like exceeding the rookie limit should probably be a prerequisite. Like getting sufficient ABs or IPs for other awards.

 That’s kind of an unfair way to do things for closers, though; they’d never be eligible to get Rookie of the Year. There might just need to be an extra check in place where a player who’s already won RotY is removed from voting consideration the next season if he wins the award without meeting the criteria to not still be considered a rookie the next season. (Pitchers, man. They have to complicate everything, I’m tellin’ ya.)

I wasn't suggesting using IPs. Rather the rookie limit as the prerequisite. If they are still qualified to be a rookie next year, they probably didn't really play enough to win rookie of the year this year (especially since the rookie limit is based on time on roster rather than ABs or IPs).

If Britton couldn't win the Cy with the insane year he had in 2016, I'm not sure closers should ever win any award.

There have been a few:

NL
2003 Éric Gagné
1987 Steve Bedrosian

AL
1992 Dennis Eckersley
1984 Willie Hernández

It's usually in years without a strong starting pitcher...more so than a dominating closer performance.
