Re: Johan Santana Cy Young award candidate

I'll tell you what, Johan Santana of the Twins sure would get my vote for the AL Cy Young Award. Yesterday, he tossed eight innings of scoreless ball in a Minnesota win, becoming the first pitcher in baseball to win 17 games. Santana is undefeated since the All-Star break (8-0) and is one of the main reasons why the Twins are currently in position to make the playoffs. He's the best pitcher in baseball, plain and simple. Do you agree?

I agree. He would have to fall apart to lose the Cy Young at this point. He did to the Devil Rays what you should do-shut them down. All of the contenders have been nothing special as of late, Halladay, Wang, Schilling. Only Garland of the White Sox remains in the mix in my opinion.

There's no other pitcher in the AL who can contend with what Santana has done this season. Perhaps only Halladay but Santana will win over him b/c of the circumstances with the Twins and Bluejays...one playoff contending, the other not.

I can already see little children wearing white and red T-Shirts that say, "Vote for Johan!". It would be as big of a hit as the popular clothing that was based on the dumb-comedy, Napolean Dynamite. I don't know why everyone falls in love with movies about people who are mentally-challenged!
