Greinke wins AL Cy Young
By Micah Warren on Nov 17, 2009 in Baseball
We have our 2009 American League Cy Young award winner and his name is Zack Greinke from the Kansas City Royals. Greinke started on a torrid pace and pitched well throughout the season despite getting just 16 wins. That’s what happens on a crappy team.
His 16-8 record and 2.16 ERA were enough to beat out Felix Hernandez’ 19-5 record and 2.49 ERA for Seattle.
Greinke received 25 first place votes to win. This means that now the Royals will have to trade him because they won’t be able to re-sign him. Awesome system MLB has.
