But you forgot the playoff factor. Johan is on a playoff team while the Giants are fighting for 4th place. MVPs and CY Youngs don`t usually come from last place teams unless your putting up Arod numbers.
Being on a shitty team didn't stop Brandon Webb from winning the NL Cy Young in 2006.
Besides, Lincecum is 16-3 on a team that's 63-80.
Do you have any idea what an accomplishment that is?
