Carmona is currently the AL ERA leader and stands to win 17-19 games on the season. He is certainly one of the frontrunners for the AL Cy Young.

I will confess that as late as early June I doubted that Fausto was for real. I couldn't believe that someone slated to begin the season at Buffalo could really have a season that rivals Sabathia's. I was terribly wrong.

This season we have two aces.
