I've been watching him too. Despite only ten decisions, he really should be in the mix for the Cy Young award. Sometimes a players stats are so far off the charts you have to bend the criteria a little.

barry- if melky cabrera can win the batting title, how can medlin not be considered for the cy young?

Melky will win the batting crown because no records have been expunged due to steroid use. Bonds still has 73 home runs in a season, so Melky's average counts.....even if you hate the fact that it does.

howard- did not know that, great to hear! Cabrera wasn't worth a crap when he was with the braves.....also, fat and extremely lazy, hmmmmm...... Wonder if the pills had anything to do with his recent success??

23 straight wins, new record! Pretty impressive. Also, medlin has not lost in 29 straight starts!

And to think... he's not even the best pitcher on his own team!

Yeah, maybe but I'm not sure how tough Kimbrel would be
stretched out over 6-7!

Kimbrel is averaging nearly 17 strikeouts per nine innings, and opponents batting average is the lowest for any pitcher in the history of baseball!

Could the Braves be a dark horse to win it all this year?

I know Kevin...Giants were not expected to do much of anything in 2010, and who picked the Cards to win it all in 2011? Maybe we will have another surprise champion this year (of course if the Giants happen to win again I won't complain)
