Lincecum Deserved the Cy Young

In case you missed it, Tim Lincecum won the NL Cy Young award and my guy CC Sabathia finished 5th or 6th with only nine votes. At first, I was like wow CC got completely jobbed and no one really showed him respect. Also major props to Mitch for calling this one a couple weeks ago and provided some good arguements behind it as well.

Then the more I thought about it, Lincecum did things with a 4th place team that would seem pretty much impossible. He didnt care who he was facing and how bad his run support was, Lincecum just got it done every time he was out there.

As Robert Flores of ESPN said, "He looks like he should being playing Halo." Which is absolutely true haha he looks like he is 15 but trust me, he doesnt pitch that way. Also he is only 5'10 160, is he the next Pedro Martinez? No doubt about it after this Cy Young win is the evidence and the Giants should hold on to him as long as possible.

There is a reason he is nicknamed "The Franchise"
