Is he the top pitcher this season? Anyone think the limelight of NY might affect his stats in 2009?
Offline
I dont believe he is the #1 pitcher this year. I rank my top 3 pitchers like this, 1. Johan Santana, 2. Tim Lincecum, 3. CC Sabathia.
Including the playoffs, CC has thrown 513 innings combined in the past two years, im worried about him staying fresh and healthy throughout the entire season. How is the arm going to hold up? If he is able to hold up, then we could be looking at the best pitcher in the game, but thats a big IF.

He isn't my #1 as I also have Santana there but I like him #2. Here is my top 5 rank:

I agree with that 5 right there.

That's an interesting question. It's probably safe to say if he drops off, it won't be a 'Carl Pavano' level disaster, but it does add some risk to Sabathia.
You know, the other thing about Sabathia I can't figure out, is what the heck happened to him in April/May last year ?

I have Sabathia at #3, and expect (maybe too optimistically) a comeback for Verlander:

| 8 | Roy Halladay | 47 | 4 |
| 9 | Scott Kazmir | 85 | 8 |
| 10 | Justin Verlander | 123 | 11 |

I see you have Peavy back at the top, Jake. I hope your right.

Now Peavy looks better to me. I hate threads like this that mess up your thinking! :)
