How do you explain just ignoring the pitching? You act like it doesn't matter.

First, on MLB's website he is listed as a "DH", not a "DH/P" on the list on AL ROY winners.

Second, in just the 10 games he started, he was a pedestrian 4-2. He barely exceeded the 50 inning limit to no longer qualify for rookie status as a pitcher by throwing 51.2 innings . If he was a closer who threw around 50 innings but had 30+ saves and a low ERA, then great consider the pitching for this award, but he was a starter.

Is it really fair to judge a starting pitcher on a mere 10 starts?

Do I think the hype of him attempting to be a two-way player helped him with the votes for this award? ....... Absolutely


If he sticks with hitting, instead of pitching, he will be a great hitter.....if he has a full season with the bat in his hands next year, there is no doubt in my mind he will be a better hitter than any of the other sophomores.
