Lincecum Too Good for M's, Wins NL Cy Young

Former Husky and Renton Liberty hurler Tim Lincecum was named the National League's Cy Young award winner today. In 2008, Lincecum was 18-5 with the San Francisco Giants. In the 2006 draft, the Mariners passed on Lincecum, opting to select Brandon Morrow instead.

Seems that since the kid is a local, the M's should have had an advantage to pick up on his talents ahead of the rest of the competition.

But they didn't. Is anybody really surprised?

TIM-MAY! Don't think the selection/non-selection of Lincecum is somehow indicative of either organization's management's quality/non-quality. My Giants are losers, too. Which makes Timmy's accomplishments all the more amazing.
