Picture this: New York Mets starting pitcher Noah Syndergaard, supermodel Kate Upton, and Detroit Tigerrs ace Justin Verlander are sitting around the dining room table discussing baseball, the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition, and life.

On Wednesday, Boston Red Sox starter Rick Porcello took home his first AL Cy Young Award, barely edging out his former teammate Verlander.
