San Francisco Giants P Tim Lincecum is the 2009 National League Cy Young Award winner. For two years in a row now, Lincecum takes home the award. Today, he became the first player since Randy Johnson was selected for the award four seasons in a row from 1999-2002. Lincecum led the National League in strikeouts with 261 and tied for the league lead with two shutouts and four complete games. During a conference call earlier today, Lincecum also addressed minor marijuana charges that were a headline in the off-season. He took time to apologize for his actions and took full responsibility for what he did. It seems as the league will take no disciplinary action in this case.
