PrintAfter blazing through the first five against Minnesota, Zack Greinke allowed four runs in the bottom of the sixth, with a big bases-loaded double off the bat of Delmon Young. That's good news for Felix. What's bad news for Felix is that the Royals erased the 4-0 deficit, taking Greinke off the hook for the loss, but I'd say that, overall, today helped the King more than it hurt. Greinke will finish at 16-8 with a 2.16 ERA while Felix has a shot at 19-5 with sub-2.50, and while that's just a completely retarded way to determine the best pitcher in the league, it may turn out to be retarded in our favor. Like Bill Leavy and the Steelers.
The 2001 Mariners were the best team in baseball, but the DBacks got the hardware. Felix doesn't deserve this award as much as Greinke does, but should he go on to win it, I think I'll manage.

That pretty much sums up my sentiments exactly...
Even if pop-baseball analysis is flawed and based on stupid inaccuracies; Why shouldn’t that bias work for us sometimes?
I have no personal investment in Greinke’s happiness despite his being the best pitcher in baseball this year, Felix is different. That’s not fair or analytical on my part, but it’s true.
I'm a huge homer when it comes to Felix, so I say fuck Greinke

Zach Greinke!
You know the Royals have a hard on for M’s. Trade Felix for Greinke and their 3 best prospects!.. just kidding everyone.
If Felix won the Cy Young that actually would not stun me

I think there is no doubt Greinke is winning the Cy Young Award.
I have yet to read anything otherwise. I just hate hearing Verlander and Sabathia being touted more than Felix.
Fuck Jeff
What’s the point of bringing up something like that on a site like this?
Pretty sure it was supposed to be a reply to Jeff's comment about Verlander
