Did he actually win it? Doesn't actually show up in my file....

Yes, he did.

You have to admit that is pretty impressive. Back to back Cy Young awards for Peppers!

Peppers is on the fast track to the HoF.

Jared -- the new file with jack's info has all of the awards.

He's also declining. He went from 10 CG in 2009 to 4 CG. No shutouts in 2010 - he had 4 in 2009. His ratings are dropping.

Oh, and the entire time, he had a 87-89MPH fastball. He got away with pure guile.

Next two years may be rough for me with him. Fortunately, I have 2 young starters who are coming into their prime, one of them being Joyce who is going to be absolutely FILTHY.

Joyce is already great and will likely get a ton better. Top it off with a 4 Greed rating and he should be a multi year Cy Young Award winner for the Green Sox over the next 10 years.

Oh, this is rich:

Brooklyn Wins AL Cy Young Award
Saturday, October 23rd, 2010: With speculation about his retirement gaining steam last offseason, Green Sox ace Manny Gómez had something to prove. He proved it in award-winning style as he accepted the American League Cy Young Award today.

The veteran Brooklyn hurler posted a record of 20 wins and 8 losses this year with a 3.14 ERA. In 34 starts he struck out 157 and walked 56 in 235 innings.

Was that before or after his massive extension? lol

Hey, I never noticed this:

Groundball Percentage 68 %

So, essentially, I have Tommy John on my team.

He also has a loyalty of 10 and a greed of 2. WHY AREN'T YOU 26, MANNY?!

PS. Gomez is projected as the #3 starter this year by the computer.
