With one month of the season complete, who are the pitchers that are cause for conversation in early Cy Young Award discussions?

Continuing on with our ‘For your WAY too early consideration’ series, it is a chance for us to continue speculation on some of the best players from the past month. This time, we look at early Cy Young Award contenders in the league through the first month.
