Season 20: Mid-Season Awards- NL Cy Young

1.Rico Pascual: Pascual's dominance is incredible.
2.Al Olivares:  Pascual's dominance is so far above everyone else it takes away from some of the other performances that deserve recognition, like Olivares'.
3. Dicky Feng: Feng has been very good so far and could be better if some Washington players were meeting expectations.
4. Harry Owen:  Best closr in the NL this season.
5.Paxton Gaetti:  Not as many innings as I would like to see but his dominance is undeniable.

Season 20: Mid-Season Awards- AL Cy Young

1. Victor Nieves:  Third best WHIP in the league, leads the league in starter ERA, league leader in wins, 3rd in K's.  He has been the winning pitcher in 15 of the 19 games he has started.  That is making a difference.
2. Ryan Edwards: league leading WHIP.  11 Wins.
3. Eric Turnbow:  Turnbow's numbers are impressive out of the pen.
4. Ray Evans: Not a real candidate for this award but past the top three no one is at this point.  Very good season and deserves some recognition for it.
5.  William Stephens:  Stephens won't show up on many lists, he has very few counting stats, but his performance has probably been the brightest part of the season in Baltimore.
