Red Sox ace and 2016 Cy Young Award winner Rick Porcello was named today as the American League 2016 Comeback Player Of The Year. The 27-year-old righty went 22-4 with a 3.15 ERA for The Carmine Hose this past season. Over the last eight seasons, Porcello is the only AL pitcher to start at least 27 games a year. In 2015, he was a disappointing 9-15 with a 4.92 ERA. The National League honor was nabbed by Anthony Rendon—the third-baseman of the Washington Nationals. Congratulations to Rick and Anthony!
