Perry: Santana's The Cy
Dayn Perry isn't impressed with Mariano Rivera's claim to the Cy Young, and thinks it ought to go to Johan Santana again:
There's no disputing Rivera's excellence in his role. However, a closer's innings deficit relative to a starter is just too much to overcome. When you're working anywhere from 120-150 fewer frames per season, there's just no comparison.... We wouldn't even be having this talk if Roy Halladay had stayed healthy. On a per-inning basis, he's easily been the best starter in the AL this season.
... All things accounted for, Johan Santana should be your 2005 AL Cy Young winner. Santana boasts substantial advantages in R/G, park-adjusted R/G and K/BB ratio, and he's also within hailing distance of the lead in HR/9 and innings. He's the clear choice.
