Game 122, Mariners at Angels
RHP Felix Hernandez v RHP Jered Weaver in a battle of young stud pitchers. 7:05, FSN.
This is it, right? Felix is the pitcher who turns this thing around for us, puts an end to this insanity.

The phrase “Snakes on a Plane” has been used on Internet forums to indicate that a given topic is nonsensical. With creative uses of capital letters, bold or italic text, and punctuation the title has been manipulated to reflect surprise, horror, or absurdity, among other things.

I don’t know what defines “candidate” for Cy Young, but if he continues to pitch somewhere near his current level, he may get put down on a couple ballots; they vote for the top 3.
I base this on my recollection that Randy Johnson got some votes for NL Cy Young in 1998 – yes, that’s the season he was traded to Houston on July 31st. In 2 months, he started 11 games and went 10-1 with a 1.28 ERA. He got 2 third-place votes from the 32 voters and ranked seventh.
