No need to rant, we all know his season wasn't worthy of a CY and that some voters see the overrated save stat and pout him down when he wasn't even a top 3 closer in baseball this year.

If the save stat is so overrated, then why should Lidge get a Cy Young vote or any other closer?

Joe Nathan was better than MO.

If Joe Nathan was better than Mo, who was better than K Rod, why does he deserve 2nd and 3rd place votes?

Why doesn't Krod deserve second or third place votes? Someone please explain to me what is wrong with 62 saves and a 2.24 ERA. I am dying to hear a REASONABLE explanation as to why!! Nathan should have gotten a vote too but didn;t. Big deal, he shouldn;t have won it anyway. Cliff Lee was the obvious choice with Halladay finishing second. After that, I have zero problem with the voting.

I agree with the voters. Cliff Lee had the best season for a pitcher in the AL. Halladay had a very good year, finishing 2nd. K'Rod had an outstanding season for a reliever, and finished 3rd. Nathan would have gotten more consideration were it not for his 6 blown saves and 2 losses. Mo lost 5 games and blew 1 save.
