Well obviously. But tim did not have a better season then wainwright

Lol..did you not see the stats John posted? Besides W's which isn't s**t considering the Cards hitting compared to the Giants pathetic hitting, Timmy had the better season. Wainwright could give up 4ER's and still win. Timmy could give up 1 or 2ER's and still LOSE.

Wain will most likely take it though.

For like the 3rd time, I don't give a s**t about the stats he posted. How many times do I have to say that for it to go through for you guys?

I think Wainwright will win the Cy Young. Thats my opinion. Jesus Christ.

Once again, he DID have a better season then Lincecum and thats why he will have a Cy Young trophy in his hands soon. I could care less about all the f**king stats you guys want to post. I don't give a s**t if he leads the league in K's. Who gives a s**t. I don't. He's not gonna win so get over it and shut the hell up already.

CYP: In The Neyer/James Guide To Pitchers -- co-authored by Bill James and ESPN.com's Rob Neyer presents a method, based on past results, to predict Cy Young balloting. This page provides an in-season snapshot of the Cy Young "race," as figured by the following formula: Cy Young Points (CYP) = ((5*IP/9)-ER) + (SO/12) + (SV*2.5) + Shutouts + ((W*6)-(L*2)) + VB (see below).
VB: Victory Bonus is a 12-point bonus awarded for leading your team to the division championship (pro-rated based on the current standings)

All perfect reasoning backing my argument. But of course, I know guys..Lincecum lead the NL in K's so that instantly wins it..right?

I looked a little closer, and I saw A BUNCH of guys on that list that have no business being in the Cy Young race, so clearly that Cy Young Predictor formula is broken.

I'd give up too if I didn't have stats to back up my idiotic statement. Grats to Wainwright though.

Maybe so. And not once have I ever denied that. But thats the system and a lot of guys are gonna be on there that shouldn't be. Ex: Johnathan Broxton in front of Lincecum But thats just the way the system works. Do I think Broxton had a better year then Tim? No. Not at all. I do think Wainwright AND Carpenter had better seasons. I think Wainwright will get it and that is my opinion.

Through 5 pages of this, they are still not getting that.
