Best part of this thread: The guy with the Nate Silver "Math" avatar dismissing WAR for ERA and WHIP.
Rich MacLeod @richmacleod For the record, Kershaw & Gio are both in t-shirts while Dickey is in a suit. R.A. wins style points. #Mets #RA4CY
The guy has such an amazing story, sexually abused as a child, climbing Mt Kilimanjaro , helping those people in India. I can't think of a better story in baseball this year then Dickey.
The Mets should trade him. They'd be able to get one, if not two top prospects back. I'd do that in a second.
No, it's happened multiple times. Montreal traded Pedro on November 18, 1997, immediately after he won. Toronto traded Roger Clemens after he won the award (in February, before the following season began). And I think there's more. His contract ended but the Mets had a team option on him for 2013, which they obviously exercised. I'd say it's more likely than not that he gets dealt.
