I would be surprised if the BBWAA didn't agree with Tim lincecum. I am more curious to see how the rest of the ballot shakes out. Outside of Webb, the other candidates were missing the Wins, NL service time or p.r. necessary to mount serious candidacies.
NL Cy Young Results:
| Rank | Player | Team | Total |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Tim Lincecum | San Francisco Giants | 170 |
| 2 | Brandon Webb | Arizona Cardinals | 117 |
| 3 | Johan Santana | New York Mets | 112 |
| 4 | C.C. Sabathia | Milwaukee Brewers | 89 |
| 5 | Cole Hamels | Philadelphia Phillies | 27 |
| 6 | Brad Lidge | Philadelphia Phillies | 22 |
| 7 | Ryan Dempster | Chicago Cubs | 13 |
| 8 | Chad Billingsley | Los Angeles Dodgers | 11 |

Fantasy surprises
Lincecum was a small surprise, but it wasn’t out of the question he’d have a great year.
Webb and Santana were expected to compete (though I guess you have to consider Santana a bit of a bust)
Is the lack of Zambrano on this list the biggest surprise?

Santana
was hyped like nobody’s business in spring training….ESPN predicting 22 wins….well, they would have been right had it not been for the Mets pitiful bullpen. He pitched great in the 2nd half.
Big Z was really up and down all year….
Holden Kushner on XM Radio felt that Santana should have won it as he pitched in alot more high pressure playoff-type games than Lincecum….he has a point. Maybe next year.
