I don't care what anyone says, Santana is the best pitcher alive right now. If he could have some run support he would have 15-16 wins. He had to strikeout 17 and pitch 8 innings to win 1-0. A man shouldn't have to do that much to get the win.
For RP Putz has insane stats this year.

SP - I would say a tie between Johan Santana and Brandon Webb. Webb is after Hershiser's consecutive scoreless innings streak and Santana fanned 17 batters the other night.
RP - I would say its J.J. Putz with the Mariners. The guy's ERA is only 1.40 and he leads the American League in saves. Oh yeah, his WHIP (walks/hits per innings pitched) is a mere .069 with a batting average against of .144. Can't get much better than that.

At the moment of typing, the best pitcher is probably Brandon Webb, because of his 3 shutout victories and 40+ scoreless innings.
Overall this season, Josh Beckett, no question.
Overall this season the best RP is Hideki Okajima

As of most recent leading up to today I would have to say Brandon Webb of the Diamondbacks. His 42 scoreless innings in a row speaks for it self.
As for relief pitcher I would have to say Hideki Okajima of the Red Sox. The guy has been money all year long.

Santana. Just look at how well he pitched against my Rangers and other teams. For RP I say CJ Wilson. Not well know except prolly around the AL West but hes fab.
