"I explained how Lincecum's stats are better. The only people denying that is the "rate stats are all that matters" crowd"
That's not true at all. All you have done is explained why you think Lincecum's stats are better. But it doesn't make them so just because you believe it. So in fact you are the one that is in denial.
Major League Baseball rates pitchers by using stats, and formulas using those stats, to give an overall score. Lincecum doesn't lead in either one. So it is a 'fact' that Lincecum's stats are not better in Major League Baseball this year. I will take MLB's facts over your opinion any day.
Also, stop reading things into what people say that are not there. Things, like "according to their logic, there are multiple relievers who should win the Cy over Carp."
You know this is not what is being said. It is easily seen as being very immature on your part and discredits anything else that you may say.
