Dissecting is such a gruesome word for it, don’t you think? Maybe dismantling would have been better. Hmm, maybe not.
Anyway, the important thing is that Rich at Baseball Analysts has taken a nice look at this year’s contenders. The American League race is extremely tight (and who knew how good Hideki Okajima has been!), while a couple of right-handers out west are leading the pack in the National League.
What, no love for Adam Eaton or Jose Contreras?
Thanks, Geoff. Your man Peavy one upped Webb this week. He now has a clear advantage heading into September.
Yep. Kinda fun to have two Cy Young candidates battle each other while their teams fight for supremacy in the same division down the stretch.
