[bsc970]

brandon webb wins cy young?? at least its not carpenter

[Andy]

Zambrano didn't finish in the top four, which is an absolute joke.

 

1. Webb

2. Hoffman

3. Carp

4. Oswalt

Hoffman 2nd? what a joke

[Tracer Bullet]

I have no problem with Webb winning.

[Andy]

I have no problem with Webb winning.

Webb should have won. Zambrano should have finished 2nd.

Yeah, maybe. I would have liked fewer walks, but he had a great season.

[Banedon]

Not too shockingly, ESPN's voting was pretty similar...

Next year maybe Zambrano can win more the 24% of the teams overall wins and finish in the top 4 :mad:

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Hoffman second!?

[Bergy92]

absolutely ridiculous that Z did not even get 1 first place vote and only 1 2nd place vote and only 3 3rd place votes? That means that only 4 people thought he was in the top 3 in pitchers? Unbelievable.

[CardsFanInChiTown]

Oswalt should have won, I think.

[ManEatingTarp]

I think the right guy won.

 

I would have voted:

Webb

Carp

Oswalt

Zambrano

 

Hoffman was a surprise.

 

Now if Pujols doesn't win MVP I'll be upset.

Webb should have won. Zambrano should have finished 2nd.

 

oswalt had more IP, a lower ERA, a better k/bb, a better DERA, a much higher vorp (72-54), a better whip, allowed fewer home runs, and even had a better g/f ratio than zambrano.

 

carpenter had more IP, a lower ERA, a better k/bb, a better DERA, a significantly higher vorp (68-54), a better whip, and even had a better g/f ratio than zambrano. carlos did allow one fewer home run though.

 

arroyo and maybe even smoltz were better than carlos this season too, but it's closer there, especially with smoltz.

Personally, I would have voted Carpenter but I can't complain about Webb. Oswalt would have been a very close third. Z didn't deserve it this year.

Do you think the people that vote for this award know half the stats you just stated? Thats just sad right? They still look for that ERA and W/L...

 

IMO:

Oswalt

Webb

Carp

Z

[wolf stansson]

Should have been Oswalt, Carpenter, then Webb.

[Mark_R]

I'm really happy Z didn't win the Cy Young; it would have driven his price up even more so than it already is.

Uh...

 

Umm...

 

Guess you're right.
