Lee has come back to earth? You mean he won't pitch with an ERA in the 1's all season long? People, Lee had a couple so-so starts. So what? It happens to everybody. But its not like he got bombed. Anyway, I just think people are mad they didn't grab Lee when they had the chance and he went to other owners. The pessimism seems like sour grapes.

Pretty significantly, actually. I remember last year with Sabathia and Beckett having similar wins/ERA (19-7 vs. 20-7 and 3.21 vs. 3.27) a number of sportswriters I read said that the difference for them was that Sabathia was more of a workhorse for his team (241 IP vs. 200 2/3).
I think there's also a flavor to the Cy Young that it's who "dominated" the league the most so K's have a minor factor into the decision, but only if there's a gross disparity between the two.

He has a good shot but keep that in mind.
So my pick to win it is Beckett. but most deserving in the end i think will be Kazmir.
