So…
You think this will come up in the arbitration hearing?
Sandy Koufax, Randy Johnson, Greg Maddux, Tim Lincecum.
And none of those guys did it before 25, let alone in their first 2 full seasons.
Timmy could go into the arb hearing 2/2 in Cy Youngs.

Schulman’s “aha” moment came when he realized that Carpenter was more dominant in the second half of the season. On the other hand, Lincecum was more dominant in the first half of the season. Why does this matter?

Missing Barry had very nice point in the fan shot. One even die hard old school fans should get. The IP difference between Tim & Carpenter is equal to half a seasons work for a top notch relief arm. When you’re not only equaling your closest competition and still doing a good part of another’s man job on top of it that is a very Alpha male/ Silver back of the troup trait.
I will just mention the Cards only won 3 games more than the Gaints and that was with an extra helping of NL Central teams so what exactly is this "down the stretch pressure cooker " thing anyways?

It’s about the importance of helping your team reach the playoffs. Not saying that should be the deciding factor, but the ‘down the stretch’ thing is about performing under the mental pressure of a playoff hunt.

For there to be play off hunt though doesn’t there have to be more then 1 other team over 500? And the one other team in the NL Centeral that finished over 500 did so by a massive 1 game. Not much a race there.

The announcers on the awards show just brought up the NL Central
They talked about how great Carpenter pitched within the division (specifically W-L record). Amazing, considering how bad the rest of that division was.
This
The Cardinals won the Central easily. If the Giants had been in the Central, there’s a pretty good chance we would have won it (beating on the Reds, Pirates, and Astros some more? Yes please). We contended with the best team in the NL and the Wild Card winner; even as a 3rd-place team, we weren’t that much worse than any division winner, and we had to play two of the best teams in the NL a lot. Besides, we were in a playoff race until mid-September anyway.
I probably replied to the wrong comment… this is regarding the why does first half vs. second half matter. Whether you agree or not, that’s the reason for considering second half stats more important.
Utter frustration and futility.

Carpenter edges Timmy by 1 first-place vote. I still have my pitchfork from the other thread.
