Ax, Yeah..Contreras is the same player that Yankees sent packing a year ago. He is probably the best pitcher that ever played in Cuban league (they say even better than El Duque in his good years) and that's why Cashman got him. But he didn't adjust accordingly. But as soon as He went to Chicago, which is not a baseball city by any stretch of imagination, he exelled. Some say it's due to El Duque's superb guidance, but both of them were here in NY too. There were few adjustments that Contreras made, like not tilting too much in one hand etc etc; but whatever he did, he is one of the most dominating pitchers baseball has and he could be better next season..scary. Mo sure got robbed. The Closing pitcher who got CY young in the past have worse stats than Mo. There is no justification as to why Mo shouldn't get the award, other than few losses he accumulated. I do agree with u, Santana and D-train might be impossible accusations. So is Contreras now. As for A-rod being bad luck, I would love to have 10 more bad lucks in my team.
