RHP Tim Lincecum wasn't considered a clear favorite for the NL Cy Young Award when the regular season ended, especially because he had 15 wins and faced fierce competition in St. Louis co-aces Chris Carpenter and Adam Wainwright. But Lincecum captured the award for the second consecutive year, becoming the first pitcher in history to do so in his first full two seasons in the majors.
Meanwhile, Lincecum must appear in a Vancouver, Wash., court on Dec. 22 for an arraignment in his marijuana case. According to police, he surrendered 3.3 grams of pot and a pipe during an Oct. 30 traffic stop.
