[edit] Dean Chance

Cy Young winner in 1964, Dean Chance - didn't he play for the Twins?—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 209.253.133.117 (talk • contribs) 13:11, 2 January 2004.

Yes, but not when he won the Cy Young.The Invisible Man 18:19, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Carpenter external link

I don't understand why 64.236.128.14 [1] added a link to Chris Carpenter's "AOL Sports" stats page. Nobody else's name has external links to stats.

On further inspection, 64.236.128.14 -- who has a vandal history -- had also done this to the "pitcher", "Current Major League Baseball players by nationality", "2005 in baseball", "New Hampshire", "Exeter, NH" article previously, as well as other players.

If readers want Carpenter's current stats, they are linked on his page. Woodshed 06:57, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Physical award?

Please pardon my ignorance, but is the Cy Young Award a physical award--some sort of actual trophy? Glass bowl? Certificate? What does it look like? It would be nice if the award could be pictured or described. Thanks. --Myles Callum 00:24, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Clemens did NOT win Cy Young in 2004, Santana did.

Clemens did NOT win Cy Young in 2004, Santana did. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 192.28.2.41 (talk)

Scroll down to the American League winners. —LOL 21:14, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Does the Cy Young Award come with money?

If so, how much? This would be useful information.Originalname37 23:58, 19 October 2007 (UTC)

I dont think they get cash bonus from MLB for winning the award but i do know as with all players in their contract their are preformance bonus built in for reaching certin milestones and winning certin awards. (Mikedlif 15:45, 23 October 2007 (UTC))

[edit] Source for Santana allegedly winning the 2007 AL Cy Young

This page seems to be the only one claiming that when the results are to be announced on 11/13. Santana did win the AL Golden Glove for Pitchers. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.120.21.190 (talk) 04:10, 10 November 2007 (UTC)

It's doubtful a pitcher would win with a record of 15 - 13 regardless of era and SOs and now we know it's Sabathia Iamhungey (talk) 21:32, 30 December 2007 (UTC)
