Saw this on social media so if you did too, you're disqualified.



What 5 MLB franchises have won the most Cy Young Awards?

[Edgy MD]

One at a time or you want me to slam five cards down at once?

[Gwreck]

You wanna show off, show off. Usual CPF procedure is one at a time, no?

[whippoorwill]

I'm betting Rangers

[Benjamin Grimm]

Dodgers

[Edgy MD]

Braves.

[batmagadanleadoff]

Mets.

[Gwreck]

Dodgers: correct, with 12.

Newcombe, Drysdale, Koufax (3), Marshall, Valenzuela, Hershiser, Gagne, Kershaw (3)



Braves: correct, with 7

Spahn, Glavine (2), Maddux (3), Smoltz



Rangers: incorrect. No Cy Young award winners for that franchise.

I could run the table because I memorized every Cy Young winner.

[Edgy MD]

Phils, almost on Carlton alone.

[Chad ochoseis]

Red Sox. I think Lonborg won in 1967, plus a few from Clemens and Pedro, plus Rick Porcello.

Correct. Carlton's 4 are the most by a single player with a single franchise (tied with Randy Johnson). Other Phillies were John Denny, Steve Bedrosian, and Roy Halladay.

Correct, exactly. 3 of Clemens' and 2 of Pedro's were won in Boston.

It was the troll post. Also, I went through the entire FAQ and the only way I can see to block someone is through the friend/foe function.And that function always tells you when a foe has posted and gives you the option for every one of your foes' posts, to view the hidden post with one click. If there's another way to block someone, I didn't see it listed in the FAQ.

How about the Cardinals?

[stevejrogers]

The MFers?



Also you didn't check the Mets off



Speaking of MFers, the most recent “hated by all of baseball, except their own fanbase” franchise, Astros might have enough by now?

I'm pretty certain that if he's looking for the top five teams, they were posted yesterday. All five.



batmags 2 (NYM, Phil)

Grimm 1 (Dodgers)

Edgy 1 (Braves)

Chad 1 (Red Sox)



Looks like I won.

Also, it can't be the Cardinals because you wrote that there are five answers and five correct answers were already submitted. Unless you made a mistake and suddenly realized that it turns out that there are more than five correct answers. If that's the case, you should fess up and tell us that there are more than five answers.
