AL Cy Young goes to Cliff, Natural-Lee
2008-11-13 11:00
by Bob Timmermann

Cliff Lee of Cleveland picked up 24 of 28 first place votes to win the AL Cy Young Award. Roy Halladay of Toronto was second and Francisco Rodriguez of the Angels was third.

Lee is the second straight Cleveland pitcher to win the award. CC Sabathia won in 2007.

Kind of refreshing that K-Rod didn't receive a single first place vote.

This will be an obscure trivia question in a few years.

Not that I expected him to win, but I'm surprised that Moose only got 2 third place votes.

The 1983 Cy Young Awards also seem like a completely different universe.

3 - He doesn't seem to be a very popular with the press. Our host may have some background to share with us, or at least some unsubstantiated rumors.

I didn't even play the video, and now I've got that stupid song in my head. Thanks a lot, Bob!

That made me tempted to play the video, but I resisted.
