The finalists for the year end awards were announced today and there are a couple surprises. Chris Sale is not a finalist for the AL Cy Young Award (Verlander, Kluber, Snell) JD Martinez is not a finalist for AL MVP (Betts, Ramirez, Trout) Joe Maddon is not a finalist for NL Manager of the Year (Counsell, Black Snitker) despite the human lapdog Bruce Levineline’s vote. That one is not a surprise. |

It is a shame Sale just didn't have the IPs this year. Currently the guy has the highest career K/9 rate and K/BB ratio ever to have played in MLB and he still doesn't have that award yet. |

ROY gets announced today. Both will be very close. NL: I think Acuna wins but Soto’s .406 obp as a rookie is really damn incredible. AL: Andujar and Torres split the vote so Ohtani will probably win. Andujar’s 76 extra base hits is also really damn incredible |

Brian Snitker and Bob Melvin are Managers of the Year. Joe Maddon got 1 1st place vote. Guess from who.

Yeah, Maddon deserved no manager of the year votes. |

Cy Young today. DeGrom should be the runaway winner in the NL. The AL should be a little closer. I think it should be Snell but it wouldn’t surprise me if Verlander wins. Either way the Misses will have something cunty to say about it. |

Snell wins in a close one and DeGrom wins in a laugher. He received 29 of 30 first place votes. Well done voters. Well done. |

MVP today. Should be an easy one with the Mook Man and Yelich taking home the hardware. |

"His string of 29 consecutive starts allowing three earned runs or less, a streak that began in mid-April and is still active, is the longest in MLB history." Nice stat. |

Dude had an incredible season. Did you see the announcement ceremony. The presenter said “Jacob DeGrom got more support from the sportswriters than he got from his teammates.” That’s great. |

Mook and Yelich in easy wins. Mook got 28-30 1st place votes and Yelich 29-30 with the other vote going to DeGrom. Ha |

Trout (Texas writer) and JD Martinez (Minn writer) got 1st place votes. A writer in Arizona gave DeGrom a 1st place vote. 6 position players in the history of baseball have a WAR of 35 or more in their first 5 seasons: Ted Williams 45.1 Albert Pujols 37.6 Mike Trout 37.0 Mookie Betts 35.2 Jackie Robinson 35.2 Wade Boggs 35.1 |

Did Addison Russell or Contreras win MVP this year or is that something still in Len Kasper's future list? |
