Sporting News should have a Cy Young vote (though 2 Cy’s make Timmy verrrrry expensive).

eh. They’ve got it. They’re not likely to use a bunch of it getting anybody else as good. And 5 years from now I’ll probably have to take a year off of watching baseball to avoid having to see him in a different uni. Give Timmy getting what he deserves.

My Bucardo is better than yours.

A hot August weekday, before a small crowd, when the only thing at stake is the tissue-thin difference between a thing done well and a thing done ill. Insofar as the clutch hitter is not a sportswriter's myth, it is a vulgarity, like a writer who writes only for money.

Half right/half wrong. King Felix should be the AL POY. Better record, WINNING ballclub this year in Seattle compared to last year’s train wreck. He accepted his managers challenge to get better and did! Sorry, but losing clubs like KC shouldn’t be awarded anything until they at least are respectable club.

Right…

I know you nerds know NOTHING about the real game of baseball, or any other athletic endeavor requiring teamwork under physical stress.

I really don’t get how you can compare the two and think that Hernandez had the better year. He was really good, but not better than Greinke. Also, I just learned that Greinke’s first name is Donald.

First name of Donald> Being on a better team.

Just science.
