Clemens should win it just from the way that he's pitched but with the run support he's had that hasn't translated to wins sadly and that may keep him from the Cy Young...

Jon Garland in the AL but that's only because Roy Halladay is hurt since he was pitching the best at the point he got hurt.

If Mark Buehrle can come close to Garland's wins he might win it because of the number of quality starts and consecutive streak of pitching at least 6 innings in a start.

Tough call either way

Willis has started the second half notoriously bad. Looks like he may follow tradition and have that post All-Star break dip. In the NL right now I think a darkhorse is Chris Carpenter of the Cards. I'm personally pulling for Pedro considering he revitalized the Mets. And he DOES have the numbers. Leads the league in Ks, tied for 4th in Ws, 7th in ERA. Attendance is up 26% on the year overall. And he nearly sells out every game. It's been a while since wathcing the Mets was FUN. And as for Clemens, it seems like ya need the wins. Look at Johnson last year with Arizona. He dominated but couldn't get run support and was just 2 over .500.

The AL I don't follow enough but based on numbers I'd take a pick from Garland, Buehrle, and Halladay. There's reports Halladay might be back as soon as Tuesday. Of course, if the injury lasts as long as 4-6 weeks then yeah I'd pull him out of it.

I'm just stunned at that ERA. 1.46. That's nearly a full point better than anybody else. Wow.

I guess I'm impressed. Dude is 42 years old. Still has a great work ethic and keeps himself in shape. I'm thinking he deserves some serious consideration.

    • Alien Isolation 2 will bring a new protagonist and setting, watch the reveal trailer here

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Alien Isolation 2 will bring a new protagonist and setting, watch the reveal trailer here by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Only a few weeks ago, Sega and Creative Assembly dropped a teaser for a new Alien Isolation. Today at Summer Game Fest, Alien: Isolation 2 was officially announced with a new trailer while also confirming a whole lot of information about the setting of this survival horror project. Check out the reveal trailer above. Leaving behind the Sevastopol space station, the sequel will take players to a remote colony world. With a Xenomorph (or more) on the loose, players will be navigating both the surface of the weather-ravaged planet as well as "the claustrophobic confines of the Weyland-Yutani outpost of Kurosaki Station." Interestingly, Creative Assembly is leaving behind Amanda Ripley, the daughter of Alien's Ellen Ripley, as the protagonist too. While it hasn't confirmed a name yet, players will be taking the role of a new character for this new adventure. The setting is also being described as a new hunting ground for the Alien. This will have players improvising and developing new tools to aid in their survival and escape, all to avoid "cinema’s deadliest killer." "It has been over a decade since we created the original Alien: Isolation and I am so excited to show everyone the first glimpse of the sequel," says Al Hope, Creative Director at Creative Assembly. "Our dedicated Survival team at Creative Assembly has been working hard to create a new, evolved Isolation experience continuing the legacy of the Alien franchise, making the eponymous killer smarter, the environment harsher and the chance of survival slimmer." Promising the same deadly tension from the original from over a decade ago, Alien: Isolation 2 is in development for PC, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 2, and PlayStation 5. A release date has not been announced yet.

      With how far Tim Apple's head has been up Trump's ass, there's no way this was done reluctantly.

      Hello, From looking at the screen shots in your motherboard's manual at https://endownload.colorful.cn/EnDownload/MotherBroard/2022/Intel 600/Manual/Intel 600 Series BIOS English/Intel 600 Series BIOS User Guide.pdf, you go to the ADVANCED option at the top of the BIOS (UEFI) menu, then select SECURITY in the list of options on the left.  From there  you can enable and set the Secure Boot mode.
