November 10, 200520 yr comment_4144 This shows why the voting is messed up. I was right about Carpenter winning it obviously, but for WIllis to finish second is plain stupid. Both Oswalt and Clemens deserved to be ahead of him since his team didnt make the playoffs and he didnt have some record-breaking year. Clemens led the league in e.r.a. AND if not for him or oswalt either one, they wouldnt have made the playoffs.
November 11, 200520 yr Author comment_4151 Cy young isnt about team domination. Its about pitching domination and carpenter was the most dominant pitcher in the NL this yr. You might be thinking of MVP award. Thats the award where team placement takes some precedent.
November 11, 200520 yr comment_4152 Nah, 1. I already said Carpenter deserved it and told you he would win it all along, and 2. It does involve how the team does, whether you think so or not. Maybe you havent listened to the media talking all year about how so and so deserves it because their team is better.
