"But what makes him such an interesting character?" Well for beginners he hit mainstream headlines when winning 2018’s American League Cy Young Award. It was as though David triumphed over Goliath again - that underdog story never gets old does it? Fast forward to 2020; tell me if this rings any bells? Picture Tampa Bay Rays battling Los Angeles Dodgers at World Series Game 6. Hear those fans cheer yet? I bet!
