For whatever reasons these "educated" voters gave the best pitcher awards to pitchers who lost a combined 15 games in 65 appearances. Bollocks says I. Forget these calculators and mathematical...

More photos » by Reinhold Matay - AP Browse more photos » On Monday afternoon, I fully expect Joe Mauer to win his first MVP award after finishing sixth in 2006 and fourth last year. Joe led the AL in batting average while hitting for respectable power (28 HRs) in only 138 games, most of which were as a catcher. He led the Twins into the postseason after they trailed by three games with...

The first news seemed to have come from ESPN.com... 'Agent Matt Sosnick told ESPN.com that negotiations between the Marlins and Johnson have reached an 'impasse," and Johnson expects to play under a one-year deal in 2010.... '"Based on our conversations, there's no chance of doing a long-term deal with the Marlins," Sosnick said. "We made it clear that it was going to be this year...

Thanks to The Star for the articles on Zack Greinke following his Cy Young award win. The other media in Kansas City pushed it to the background because yet another chemically over-developed NFL player (Dwayne Bowe) was caught taking drugs...

by Jeff Fletcher Filed under: Cardinals , Giants , MLB Awards Since Zack Greinke and Tim Lincecum won Cy Young awards this week with modest victory totals, there has been much discussion about how baseball writers are finally moving into the 21st century and looking beyond the win column. Although I'm all for patting baseball writers on the back -- since I am one, and I did vote for Greinke -- I think...

While many in Kansas City are celebrating Zack Greinke's triumphant victory in this week's Cy Young trophy presentation, the award means more to me and several thousands others in Kansas City. I suffer from severe depression, nervousness, sudden sweat breakouts and panic attacks. Prior to the 2006 season, Greinke nearly quit baseball due to anxiety and clinical depression. Many Royals fans wrote Greinke...

Remember that retirement post I made earlier this week? Forget it. I'm coming back, albeit in a different fashion. This is not an effort to draw attention to this blog, as my traffic has plummeted since I made the announcement. But a few circumstances led me to this decision. • The biggest sports day in Kansas City happened the day after I quit. While I'm not a big guy on faith, I do believe...

Link-O-Rama Zack Greinke outed himself as an FIP-loving stathead after winning the AL Cy Young. Obviously the true test will come when the AL MVP is announced Monday, but so far at least I'm very pleased with how the Baseball Writers Association of America has voted this year . They've matched my choices for AL Cy Young , NL Cy Young , and AL Rookie of the Year while disagreeing only on NL Rookie of...

(AP Photo/Ben Margot) Browse more photos » Today it was announced that Tim Lincecum would join Zack Greinke as this year's second Cy Young award winner. Both had excellent seasons. While Greinke likely has the edge due to Lincecum's more favorable league and park, both exhibited no real weakness....

Tim Lincecum had fewer first-place votes than Adam Wainwright , fewer second-place votes than Chris Carpenter , and fewer victories than any pitcher to win the award in a non-strike season. But none of that stopped him from being awarded the Cy Young by the Baseball Writers Association of America for the second consecutive year: Lincecum repeated as the National League Cy Young Award winner, besting...

(OK, I’m sure that’ll be a headline used by just about everyone. Nobody’s ever said I was creative.) The news is out , and Tim Lincecum won another Cy Young, beating out Chris Carpenter and Adam Wainwright. It was a ridiculously tight race, with Lincecum beating Carp by 6 points and Waino by 10, with Wainwright getting the most first place selections. It was a race that any of them...

The baseball writers for once got both Cy Young Awards right. One thing that jumps out as a sign of the times: neither 15-game-winner Tim Lincecum nor 16-game-winner Zack Greinke (both of whom were "supported" by weak offensive teams) had so much as 25 decisions . Looking at Greinke's ERA+ of 205, tied for the 31st best league/park adjusted ERA of all time with Addie Joss' 1908, I was reminded...
