Honestly, Indians could have won the division w/o CC. Red Sox could not w/o Beckett. Honestly, imo, Red Sox would be crippled if they lost Beckett

this is true, but has nothing to do with the cy young award. it does mean that beckett deserves more votes than sabathia in the MVP award voting tho.

It's not true at all though. Cleveland would have won a lot less games with some scrubs pitching those 240 innings instead of CC.
edit: OK I jumped the gun and didn't clearly read the "wins the division" part. Obv Cleveland is favored by a weaker division. This is all assuming "winning the division" is meaningful in some way. My basic point still stands: CC was pretty frickin' important.
