So no one has any predictions or comments of players left out?

Anyway, I just realized Jose Fernandez isn't one of the Cy Young finalists. A lot of people thought he had a good chance of winning, partly as a sympathy vote, though he did have a great season. But I'm glad he won't win after they found cocaine in his system.

Pretty interesting. Some tight races and then some easy picks, like Byant, Seager, Francona, and Maddon. I agree with you about Jose Fernandez, pretty sad.

Am I the only one that thinks the Bryant/Murphy vote will be really close? Will be happy with either, but wouldn't be surprised at all to see Murphy win.

Seager will probably get it since he played the whole season and maybe im biased but i think Turner should get the NL ROY.

Seager is an MVP finalist as well. He may win ROY unanimously.

It's pretty ridiculous that JA Happ didn't get nominated for the CY.

It's pretty ridiculous that JA Happ didn't get nominated for the CY.

Why?

 

[aarne13]

Why?

Both Kluber (18-9, 3.14) and Verlander (16-9, 3.04) had good years but the Jays wouldn't have made the playoffs without Happ (20-4,3.18). Heck, Aaron Sanchez should have been given some consideration as well (15-2, 3.00 ERA).

But the cy young is not MVP. It tends to go to the best pitcher, regardless of the teams record.
