Josh Beckett

So Beckett got snubbed…Realizing that his and Sabathia’s stats were almost identical(C.C. had a few more strikeouts)…but how, in God’s name does a 20 game winner – hang on- let me rephrase that – the first 20 game winner since 2005 – NOT win the Cy Young? But not to worry…dude’s young – he’ll have a cabinet full before it’s all over..

“The right guy won and I’m fine with that,” Beckett wrote in a text message from Texas. “It was a great year and the only people I want to impress are my teammates, and if they would have had votes, I would have won. So when I lay down and thank God for blessing me, I will sleep well, and tomorrow I will be up early for some deer hunting.”

Classy guy…now go shoot some buck.
