If the Cy Young is for the best pitcher in the league, then I would give it to CC. His stats this year are ridiculous. 253 IP all told. When was the last time that happened? His 7 complete games (just with the Brewers) lead the league…. and when I say led the league, that means he had more complete games individually than any TEAM did collectively in the national league, and that doesn’t count his 3 complete games with the Tribe. 132 IP in the NL is a much more significant amount than the 53 games that Manny played.
11-2 with a 1.65 ERA is ridiculous. He gave up 4 runs in just one start. The Brewers went 15-2 in his 17 starts, and he was dominant yesterday in an obviously crucial game.
Santana will probably win. He had a terrific year, and a great finish. Some might say that his bullpen cost him 5-6 wins (Which they did), but that wouldn’t have happened had he been able to complete more games. Sabathia didn’t allow his bullpen to blow any games for him.
Brandon Webb had a 5.70 ERA in his last 7 starts, thus killing any chance Arizona had to make the playoffs… His winning the Cy Young would be a travesty this year.
