"He was bound and gagged and put under an interrogation lamp

  • by a blind gaggle representing the Baseball Writers Assn. of America, who voted

overwhelmingly to make Bartolo Colon one of the most underwhelming Cy Young Award winners ever.

  • "Ridiculous? It isn't just ridiculous,
"And don’t think for one second that the fact that
  • Mariano Rivera plays for the New York Yankees
in certain quarters.
  • So that makes it spiteful, too.""
