Beckett had a nice year, but he'll need more than that to be compared to Santana. Beckett has never had an ERA under 3, and if he wins the Cy Young this year it will be his first. Before 2007, Santana had three consecutive seasons of a sub-3 ERA, and won two Cy Young awards. Even their 2007 seasons were very close - Beckett with a slightly better ERA, Santana with the better Ks and WHIP - and the only reason Beckett got so much love is that he hit 20 wins by being on a good team.
You could argue that Beckett had a better 2007, but it's not even close right now as to who's the better pitcher. Santana has been dominant for several seasons, while Beckett just bounced back from a 5+ ERA. He needs to prove himself more to be compared to Santana.

Currently I would have to say Josh Beckett. Overall, it's Johan Santana.

Josh Beckett.
He was lights out the whole year, and even better in the post season. He's a true power pitcher. When he's on, nobody can hit him.

I'd have to wait until Liriano comes back from the DL, until then, I'd have to go with Papelbon, never mentioned realievers. but if i only focused on starters, then I'd Def. have to say Santana, beckett a close second tho

You forgot Wang. He won 19 games. Not to mention The Joba Man will have his name mentioned as one of the best active pitchers. In 2008 or 2009, you will believe me.
