Despite not receiving the most first place votes, or even the most second place votes, Tim Lincecum has won his second straight National League Cy Young award, according to the
It was one of the closest votes in the history of the award. While either Carpenter or Wainwright bested Lincecum in many key categories, including wins, innings pitched, ERA and WHIP, Lincecum posted the league's most strikeouts, complete games, shutouts, strikeouts per nine innings and best strikeout-to-walk ratio. Congratulations to Lincecum on becoming the first pitcher in either league to win the award in consecutive seasons since Randy Johnson won four straight from 1999-2002.
The judge informed Lincecum that he would have to appear in court like everyone else if he wanted him to sign off on the deal. No word yet if Lincecum will be able to afford the hefty $372 fine, but we have a feeling he can find the money somewhere.
According to
Little Timmy Lincecum appears to be all grown up. He was pulled over for speeding in his home state of Washington, when the police officer smelled marijuana smoke in his vehicle. The 2008 Cy Young award winner handed over a pipe and 3.3 grams of weed and was fined $622 for the infraction. Lincecum smudged his image a bit, but fantasy owners likely won't care as long as he keeps throwing fireballs in the regular season.
Giants' beat writer
The Giants are moving in the right direction, and they are about one impact bat away from being a major contender in the NL. Their pitching staff is outstanding, and tey have some nice young talent in their lineup. Expect the Giants to be in the playoff hunt next season.
Making his final start of another tremendous season, Tim Lincecum struck out seven in seven innings, picking up his 15th win, as the Giants beat the Diamondbacks 7-3 at home.
It was another great start for Lincecum, but after being a virtual lock for the Cy Young in August, he now faces very stiff competition from the Cardinals' Adam Wainwright and Chris Carpenter for the award (not to mention Atlanta's Javier Vazquez). His 15 wins are third amongst the terrific trio, while his 2.48 ERA and 1.05 WHIP are both second to Carpenter (2.24 and 1.01, respectively). He does have the most strikeouts in the National League, however. The only certainty in the 2009 NL Cy Young race is that it promises to be the closest in years.
