Re: MLB Off-Topic
The awards were voted on before the postseason but I hear you on that point. Thank goodness he didn't win as that would've made for some AWKWARD TV. At least there was a time when the awards weren't announced on live television for everyone to see.Member of the Official OS Bills Backers Club

I like that even though the Indians and Astros had historically good teams, they recognized that Molitor went from losing that many games the year before to improving like they did.Comment

Re: MLB Off-Topic
Yeah I don't think you could give AL manager of the year award to anyone else but Molitor. You take a team that lost 100 games and put them in the playoffs the next year?....that's impressive.I can't shave with my eyes closed, meaning each day I have to look at myself in the mirror and respect who I see.

Re: MLB Off-Topic
Scherzer and Kluber take home the Cy Young Awards.
#3 for Scherzer and #2 for Kluber. It's weird for me to think that Scherzer is just one Cy Young award away from matching Greg Maddux career mark."People ask me what I do in winter when there's no baseball. I'll tell you what I do.

Re: MLB Off-Topic
I can't believe he has 3 while Kershaw is pitching.
I know injuries and stuff but it's still fascinating to me.
Edit. Scherzer has one from Detroit, right? That would explain it.

Re: MLB Off-Topic
BTW - it was nice to see Kluber show up for the Cy Young interviews. I wasn't sure after the playoffs..."People ask me what I do in winter when there's no baseball. I'll tell you what I do. I stare out the window and wait for spring." - Rogers HornsbyComment

Re: MLB Off-Topic
Do view Scherzer in the same light as some other HOF pitchers who've won multiple Cy Young awards? I mean he's great and all but maybe by virtue of playing in the markets he has he doesn't get the extreme hype around him. It's always been more of "these are the best pitchers and Scherzer is among them." kind of thing or maybe i'm just not paying attention?
Helluva pitcher tho.Member of the Official OS Bills Backers Club

Re: MLB Off-Topic
What will happen to the prospects if they lose them? Do they become free agents?
