Bailey ROY

Normally this sort of award would warrant a happy post, but as I am in a wretched mood at the moment, prepare for the opposite. Brett Anderson deserved to win the award. Bailey was great, but Anderson was simply incredible. People are making a big deal of how Bailey skipped from AA to the bigs, well guess what guys, so did Brett fucking Anderson. Anderson was not only the best rookie pitcher, he was one of the better pitchers in baseball. He had a 3.69 FIP, 23rd in MLB. That's better than Matt Cains supposed "break out year" and over a full point better than Mr. 3rd place Rick Porcello. Retarded. Andrus was certainly good this year, but Anderson was nearly elite. Porcello simply sucked. Niemann was alrite, but I don't see much argument for him over Anderson. Baseball awards are retarded, or rather, the voters for them are. Normally wouldn't care enough to do this, but again, bad mood, anger needs to be vented somewhere. With that said I'm gonna do the unthinkable, turn in before 1 am. How long has it been since I got to bed this early, I wonder.
