I don't even know how you give the Cy Young to a 37 year-old knuckleballer.  I mean yes, I know there's no reason you can't, but it just seems wrong.  I'm not saying Gio should get it, but Dickey is an over the hill washup who lucked into being really good at throwing a gimmick pitch.  I just don't feel like that embodies what a Cy Young recipient should be.

He threw that gimmick pitch and averaged 2 walks per 9 innings. That's unheard of before.
