Johan Santana has allowed as many walks -- five -- as homeruns. His 32-to-5 strikeout-to-walk ratio is awesome, and if he can get the homeruns down a bit (the rate, that is; his homerun total won't get any lower than it is now) he'll be a Cy candidate by year's end. You know, unless Brandon Webb goes 35-0 as his current pace would dictate.
