No Cy for CC
Our ALCS MVP didn’t come away with the 2009 Cy Young award like I hoped. Instead it was Zack Greinke of the Kansas City Royals.
Greinke only won 16 games (which could have been more if the Royals’ offense had offered some support) but had an incredible ERA of 2.16 and a strikeout total of 242.
Felix Hernandez finished second with Justin Verlander, CC Sabathia, and Roy Halladay behind him.
I would go into more detail, but I’m currently trying to figure out my spring schedule for classes next semester. (Which is very, very aggravating!!)

Leah: I think it belonged to CC. And there isn’t too much Yankee-favoritism in my decision. CC did what he did in the AL East, the toughest division in baseball. Greinke had it easy in the AL Central. Whatever. It’s over. I just hope one of our Yanks wins the MVP. They announce it tomorrow, and I don’t want to hear Mauer’s name….
