I voted Lincenum only because
A) Sabathia isn't on the list and he's been amazing.
B) Every single one of Webb's losses came when I had a lot of money on them winning, so I hate him now.
I don't agree that the Cy Young should only go to a pitcher from a good team. SF sucks ass, and yet Lincenum is tied for 4th in the NL in wins, he leads the MLB in strikeouts, and he's tied for first in the MLB for ERA. PLaying for a shitty team with stats like that make it all that more impressive IMO. Lets not forget that he did this, while playing for the team with the LEAST amount of runs in baseball.
Edit: Also, Im pretty sure in the AL the candidates would be Dice K, Doc, and Lee. Besides Dice K, the other 2 play for teams who aren't in contention either, and most likely Lee wins it.
