 Justin Duchsherer for Cy Young!!!
Justin Duchsherer for Cy Young!!!
Justin Duchsherer is now 10-6 and a bonafide All Star. In those 6 losses, the As managed to score 3, 0, 2, 1, 0 and 1 run for him. 7 total runs in 6 losses. A month ago I would have said Cliff Lee should be the AL Cy Young front-runner. I am not sure anymore.

 Hall of Fame No Longer Closed to Closers
Hall of Fame No Longer Closed to Closers
Next Sunday, Rich “Goose” Gossage will become the fifth relief pitcher inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, New York. Gossage was the most feared reliever of his day and should have been inducted a few years earlier. The other four Hall of Fame relievers are Hoyt Wilhelm (class of 1985), Rollie Fingers (class of 1992), Dennis Eckersley (class of ...

 Chris Carpenter Is Rehabbing
Chris Carpenter Is Rehabbing
With the Cubs, Brewers, and Phillies, all teams that the Cardinals may be competing with for a playoff spot, adding arms for a stretch run, the Cardinals are suddenly losing theoretical ground in the standings, even if their records says they're keeping pace. It's possible that they'll stay right in the race without a roster upgrade, but it just seems unlikely at this point. Fortunately for ..

 LaPorta Honored Again
LaPorta Honored Again
Matt LaPorta has had a busy month. He was traded from the Brewers organization to the Indians for last year’s Cy Young winner, bringing all kinds of expectations on his shoulders. His luggage was lost on the way to Akron, and his cell phone ‘broke’. He lost his grandfather two days before taking part in the Futures game at Yankee Stadium...

Please Get Over Yourself You Delusional Punk
The punk I speak of is Red Sox closer Jonathan Paplebon, and it turns out that this arrogant douchebag thinks he deserves to close tomorrow. From Peter Abraham : “If I was managing the team, I would close. … But I’m not managing the team,” he said today. Sam Borden and some of the other writers there asked Papelbon whether Mariano Rivera had earned the right to close. “I think we both ...

MLB: Halfway Point Awards
So far, the Major League Baseball season has had several great stories like Josh Hamilton, Kerry Wood and Ryan Ludwick, but as we cruise into the halfway point, who get's the midseason hardware. The usual suspects are at the top fighting for the first half MVP, CY Young and rookie of the year awards but I have a new prize to give out this year. So to kick things off, the first half awards go ...

 Barry to D-Backs?
Barry to D-Backs?
Barry Bonds, facing eventual Cy Young Award winner Jake Peavy, flied out to center fielder Brady Clark for the third out in the 6th inning of an 11-3 loss to the San Diego Padres. Seems pretty innocuous, considering the never ending list of accomplishments and accolades Bonds had compiled in his career. But it was significant. The date was September 26, 2007, and it was the last at-bat of ...

 The Indians Throw in the Towel?
The Indians Throw in the Towel?
A big trade was announced yesterday that sent 2007 AL Cy Young Award winner C.C. Sabathia to the Milwaukee Brewers for top prospect OF Matt LaPorta, P Zach Jackson, P Rob Bryson and a player to be named later (click on any of the three players for their numbers). Sabathia will become a free agent after this season and I think that the Yankees will make a big push for him.

This article is about two players who very well may have garnered more attention had they been able to ...
