Ok, so if you look at it this way, Brandon Webb is the #1 starter out of a 5 man rotation. The Diamondbacks have played 41 games so far (26-15, best record in baseball!), so you have to calculate out of 45 games when they will get through the whole rotation once more. At that pace, Webb is technically on pace for 32 wins.
BUT, at this point he has won every start, and you know that at some point he will be pitching a good game, yet the offense will stall and he will get the loss or a no-decision.
Also, the Dbacks will be playing a lot more non-division games coming up and the west is obviously sub-par compared with the rest of the league. So Webb will be slowing down quite a bit as far as pace.
That said, I still think he can win 22 games barring injury or major offensive colapse by the Dbacks.
Brandon for Cy Young and All Star Game Starter!
