Just wondering, after watching Dice-K leave Monday night's game against the Rays after five innings and throwing 101 pitches -- has there ever been a pitcher with a 17-2 record who has been less impressive, or, perhaps, less dominant, over the course of a season?
All year, Dice-K has struggled to pitch deep into games, mostly because of control issues which result in his pitch count mounting quickly.

Well, >=17 W,

1 Cliff Lee, 2008, CLE, 28 BB, 157 K, 2.36 ERA
2 Randy Johnson, 1995, SEA, 65 BB, 294 K, 2.48 ERA
3 Greg Maddux, 1995, ATL, 23 BB, 181 K, 1.63 ERA
4 Roy Face, 1959, PIT, 25 BB, 69 K, 2.70 ERA

So the answer is no.
