NL Cy Young - Midseason

[WharfRat]

This one might not be so cut-and-dried as the AL...

Chris Carpenter - 11-4, 2.77, 113.2 IP, 98 H, 29 BB, 112 K, .235 BAA; 2nd in NL in Ks, CGs; 3rd in W; Best pitcher on best team (no offense to Mulder)

Roger Clemens - 6-3, 1.50, 108 IP, 70 H, 32 BB, 104 K, .182 BAA; Leads NL in ERA, 2nd in WHIP, BAA; Imagine what he'd do with an offense behind him

Livan Hernandez - 11-2, 3.32, 119.1 IP, 121 H, 45 BB, 71 K, .268 BAA; 2nd in NL in W, IP; El Presidente obviously enjoying his new home (and more hometown popularity than his counterpart in the White House )

Pedro Martinez - 9-2, 2.74, 115 IP, 72 H, 22 BB, 123 K, .177 BAA; Leads NL in WHIP, K, BAA; He's set the Wayback Machine to 2000

Roy Oswalt - 10-7, 2.54, 120.1 IP, 104 H, 25 BB, 82 K, .233 BAA; Leads NL in IP, 3rd in ERA; Wins despite offensive woes

Jake Peavy - 7-2, 2.88, 100.0 IP, 75 H, 20 BB, 110 K, .207 BAA; 3rd in NL in BAA, WHIP, K; No-hit stuff every time he takes the ball

Dontrelle Willis - 12-3, 2.04, 114.2 IP, 108 H, 22 BB, 85 K, .253 BAA; Leads NL in W, CG, 2nd in ERA; Amazing start a bright spot for underachieving Fish

Vote for Pedro. Tina eat your ham, you fat lard!

[MMoNeY24]

I'll go with Pedro, his .177 BAA is nasty.

Even as a diehard Peavy fan, Clemens is the obvious vote.

clemens!

Obvious? I'm not so sure. Less K's, more BB, higher BAA, higher WHIP than Pedro. I'm not knocking Clemens as your choice. He's a great choice, as are a number of guys on this list. I don't think you can honestly call him the 'obvious' choice given the list, only because nobody is the obvious choice.

[BronXBombers51]

Gotta go with the Rocket Man.

His ERA is a full run better though. That's more important to me than K's or BAA.

I think the Met fan in you is swaying your opinion.

Clemens is the obvious choice to me, with Dontrelle second

[SuptownSpartans34]

I voted for D-Train.

At times he has been untouchable, he just has to keep it up in the 2nd half and he could be on his way to a Cy Young.

Clemens doesn't get enough wins, even though its not his fault he shouldn't get the 1st half Cy Young.

Agreed.
