It seemed like Webb was gonna win this year, until he started struggling while Lincecum and Sabathia did great. And now, both Lincecum and Sabathia are cooling down while Webb is a 22, possibly 23 game winner. Lincecum is on pace for 2 straight losses unless the Giants pull an amazing comeback today, and Sabathia, well, he's kind of fallen out of the race cause he's lost a couple times. So, is it going to be Webb, Lincecum, or someone else? Cause Lincecum still has the K's and ERA, even with the 17-5 record, which is pretty amazing still. |

A 3.24 ERA is not mediocre at all. |

In terms of Cy Young contention, it damn well is. Lincecum is destroying him in every category except for wins. And that's easily counterbalanced by Lincecum's K totals. --------------------------------- Games Started Lincecum: 33 Webb: 33 IP Lincecum: 220.0 Webb: 219.2 K/BB Lincecum: 3.07 Webb: 2.79 Opponent Average Lincecum: .223 Webb: .243 WHIP Lincecum: 1.18 Webb: 1.20 Run Support Webb: 5.04 Lincecum: 4.99 Conversely, it's pretty amusing that many think Lincecum gets little to no run support. He's 12th in the league (minimum 200 IP), and .4 runs ahead of Roy Halladay. |

Don't get me wrong, I'm all for Lincecum to get the Cy Young. I'm just saying even for a Cy Young, a 3.24 ERA is still good. Last year, Sabathia had a 3.21 ERA, in 2006 Webb had a 3.10 ERA, Colon in 2005 had a 3.48 ERA, Halladay in 2003 had a 3.25 ERA, and Clemens in 2001 had a 3.51 ERA. |

k but Lincecum still owns Webb in the ERA battle, too so there's not much to argue about regarding ERA right now. |

Do you not get it? I'm not arguing whether he should be the Cy Young, since I clearly stated he shouldn't get it, but rather that a 3.24 ERA for a Cy Young winner isn't bad at all and is far from mediocre. |

In a year where with the absence of performance enhancing drugs, pitchers have dominated. 3.24 is decent. I guess 4 would be considered mediocre. |

He won't win though because the bullpen blows to many games for him. He's 15-7 with a fantastic ERA. I don't see him winning it though. |

The best 8th-9th inning combo in baseball!!!

And it's a damn shame that it's the bullpen's fault he's not being talked about enough. God I hate them... |
