Santana Claus

Johan Santana continues to make a very good case for winning the Cy Young award. Another 7 remarkable innings today, allowing just five singles. No runs, no walks and nine strikeouts. With Tim Hudson having given up seven runs to the Red Sox already, Johan will be all by himself atop the AL ERA lead tomorrow.

At the moment I think the award comes down to Santana, Hudson and Schilling, but Santana would get my vote.

I'm saying this as a Sox fan, but why isn't Mariano Rivera in this discussion? As bad as the yankees' starters havew been this season, the bullpen has allowed those 5-1 5th-inning games to become 7-5 yankee wins. If it were possible, the 3-headed monster of Quantrill-Gordon-Rivera would get my vote. If I had one.
