    Give me the 20-year-old who did it for six months, not four. A historic season.

    give me the catcher, I'll win. The game doesn't care how old you are & neither should the voters. Is Jamie Moyer your Cy Young?

    The guy's vote was fine and so was his logic. Don't know if I'd leave Posey off my ballot entirely, but he just doesn't think 115 games is enough to earn his vote. Fair enough.

    The fact that you're going back to Mantle and Williams, that says a lot.
