I think he ate it somewhere back in 2007. I question Sabathia’s aceness. I think he ate it somewhere back in 2007.

But for some reason at that time, in April of 2004, he must have seemed pretty awesome and dominant...

Your previous lists, however... I mean, Wade Miller? Dude had one good, healthy season. I don’t have any problems with your current list. Your previous lists, however… I mean, Wade Miller?

He is always battling either injury or inconsistency. I had no doubt in my mind that he would fall back down to earth in 2008, and sure enough, he did.

I would have thought you would have put him on in 2008? I am curious, Nick, as to why Josh Beckett has never appeared on your list. I would have thought you would have put him on in 2008?

It is doubtful he could sustain quite as good rates over a full season. Great pitcher, but can't yet call him an unquestioned ace.

I also have questions about his durability in general. Plus I think his stats were better than his peripherals last year. If he can do it all again this year, he'll be in, but we'll see.

Sabathia's a veteran who has thrown a ton of innings, and Lincecum is a Francisco Liriano waiting to happen. The thing is, if they both avoid injury, they'll be deserving of their ranking on this list. C.C. and Lincecum just scare the crap out of me.
