Who Should Win The NL Cy Young Award?

I think the answer to this question is quite obvious, actually.

Since arriving in ccsabathia_nc.jpgMilwaukee, CC Sabathia leads the National League in starts, wins, complete games and winning percentage. He also ranks second in strikeouts and third in ERA. Oh, and I should probably mention that he’s been instrumental in catapulting the Brewers into post-league play.

If Sabathia were to win the Cy Young, that would make him the first pitcher to win the the coveted award in back-to-back leagues in consecutive seasons.

The fact that he switched leagues and still continues to dominate should be considered a positive not a negative. It’s harder to dominate against players you haven’t had the pleasure of “getting to know” throughout the season.

I’m all for Sabathia. And I know the rest of his teammates and the fans in Milwaukee are, too. After all, the Brewers haven’t been to a post season since 1982.

    Hello.
    If Sabathia wins the Cy Young award then Manny Ramirez has to win th MVP in the National League.
    I don’t think this is gonna happen.
    The winner of the Cy young is Brandon Webb or Tim Lincecum.
    Is hard for me to say this because,im a DODGER fan.
    If Sabathia wins the award,this awards is a joke.
    Thank you.
