Bonderman is amazing! Your right, the fans robbed him just like they robbed so many others. GO TIGERS!

I know he has nine wins, but it's not like Bonderman's numbers are all that impressive.
He's got a 3.58 ERA, which doesn't even get him in the top 10 in the AL. His win total is also inflated because of the fact that the Tigers have a great offense - Bonderman has won three games in which he gave up five runs, and another when he gave up four. Many pitchers could chalk up nine wins given that kind of run support.
I like Bonderman, but it's not like he got robbed in this case. He lost out to a guy with an ERA of less than 0.90, and it would be tough to make the case of Bonderman over Okajima.

A 9-1 W/L record doesn't beat an ERA of .88 and Okajima is also averaging close to 9 K's per 9 IP.

So did almost everyone else on the Final Vote list. and he definitely does not have the best record.
Okajima is arguably the best pitcher in the Red Sox bullpen anyways.
Maybe you should've spent more time voting for Bondo! :)
