Mariano just completed another phenomenal season with 44 saves in 46 opportunities and an ERA 1.76. He helped his team win over 100 regular season games and the World Series. Yet he gets no votes. How does this make sense?

It doesn't. Mariano is the greatest reliever in baseball history and it is unconscionable that the voters overlooked him in this year's CY Award voting.

Timmy's lucky that he had 2 Cardinal pitchers in the hunt instead of one.  Obviously they split the vote and he slipped in.  In my opinion both Carpenter and Wainwright were more deserving this year.  Tim's a hell of a pitcher, but he back doored this one.

I guess it is time for him to whip out the celebratory bong again !!!

Never noticed how much they whine and cry and think they are entitled to argue everything if they dont get their way. Players do the same, just because the payroll is like a billion they think they are entitled to argue every strike that isnt a ball. When you spend that much money and dont win for 10 years it is a joke. And so is your team.

what 2 writers left Carpenter off their ballot.  Vasquez & Haren?  They were 15-10 & 14-10 respectively.  If the writers were from SF then they need their credentials for voting stripped.  With the 2 other votes, the worst Carpenter does is tie Lincecum.

Yes he did amazing, but look at the defense he had behond him and the offense he had infront of him. Can you honestly say that of the 5 people that got votes, one should be taken off so Mariano can get some votes? I know its not all about numbers but the numbers do have alot to do with it. How about we look at some numbers then you tell me:

Relief pitchers have their own award. You can bitch and moan if he doesn't win that.
