The Cy Young Contenders, There's a Lot of Them

Listed below are the stat lines of the National League pitchers that I see as those that will contend for the Cy Young Award.  As great as Kershaw has been so far, it looks like he’ll need to step it up a notch to break away as the favorite.   Clayton has been phenominal so far.  It's hard to imagine him taking it to another level. (The stats in RED indicate best in the league)

I knew they were pushing it with Ruby De La Rosa.  Click HERE for OPK Link to June 29th posting 

Let's all hope that Tommy John surgery is not in his future.  So far, it's not looking good.  I know Ely got called up, but doesn't Dana Eveland deserve a shot?
