Got it. I thought you left out Straw's 9/87; I was looking at the right side of your chart. But right was wrong.

[Ceetar]

September 2008: Pedro Martinez?

It's disturbing me a little that Santana didn't win it despite pitching very well, that we had another pitcher win the award, and yet still choked away the season.

[TransMonk]

If Leiter was good enough for June 2000, I'll guess him for June of 1999 as well.

[Fman99]

Santana was September 2008 I bet. I was there for the last and best of his starts that month.

Pedro didn't win a game in September 08. I have no clue who it is if it isn't Johan.

Ditto.

[HahnSolo]

Trying to get out of negative-land:

Apr 73 Player Milner

Sep 91 player HoJo

[Guest Edgy DC]

Negativeland. There's an SST Records reference.

Correction: Solo was correct on Santana.

Transmonk making his move.

I remember Pedro having a good start at the end. but I couldn't remember his record. Santana was already guessed incorrectly.

I know who it is then, although I didn't think he was good enough to win the award for the league..I'll let Edgy officially declare my Pedro guess wrong first though.

[TransMonk]

Pitcher May 1997: Bobby Jones

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

TransMonk wrote: Pitcher May 1997: Bobby Jones

AH. Yes.

[batmagadanleadoff]

7/94's gotta be Sabes, who was Cy Young caliber in '94.

[batmagadanleadoff]

Agee for 6/70.

[Guest Edgy DC]

I've already so declared, Ceetar.

Jones was HUGE for Monk, but magadan punches right back. Right back! And the late run from LWFS is stymied by one incorrect answer! STYMIED!

I've had some good guesses. One more, as I don't remember so well before the late 90's:
Player, September 1985: Gary Carter

[HahnSolo]

august 83 pitcher Orosco?

Sept. 85 player Carter?


edit. Damn. Late on both.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Great work by Monk. One more dude left.

Wrong guesses for April, 1973: Hahn, Staub, Milner.

[TransMonk]

Now that batmags has clinched, I peeked at the player for 1973.

Toughie for sure.

You shouldn'ta.

Re-reading my pre-amble might help folks.

I didn't clinch. I could lose points for submitting wrong answers. And I think I figured out 4/73. Because I listened to Edgy and re-read his ramble. But I'm sitting out the last day of the season. I'm no Ted Williams.

[HahnSolo]

Seaver?
