I've heard a lot of good things about Kershaw winning it. About time we have a Cy Young around here that we can be proud of. Last one was Gagne. And we all know how that relationship ended.
CK!!! I don't give a shit who is close or in the top two three or four...as long as the kid is in the top one. So let it be written; so let it be done...on the morrow.
i cant wait im so proud of Kershaw i always knew he's be a monster second i heard him, saw him, read about him, he just had "It" I just knew he'd be a horse like CC or Halladay his constant improvement is amazing i know he's young and is supposed to improve, but there are plenty of young starters who just dont get it and he's only 23. amazing
anyone know what time exactly they'll be giving out the award? I might actually wake up early on my day off to see if Clayton won.
Kershaw's gonna win, but I dont see how anyone can say it's a landslide. I could see the argument for Halladay.
CK should be overwhelming, should be universal. If anyone doesn't vote for him they should lose their credentials.
ERA, Strikeouts, WHIP, and Wins title. Whether those are the best stats is irrelevant. When you take the top 4 fantasy stats, the voters have no choice.
Someone tweeted it awhile back, but the similarities in numbers for CK, Cliff Lee, and Halladay in actual numbers was pretty scary (or maybe that was just at one late point in the year)
For anyone interested and/or not near a TV, HERE is a link to the live feed announcing the NL Cy Young. Coverage begins at 10:30am PDT, with the winner scheduled to be announced at 11:00am...
