even with out a ring? and his post season stats?


yes. i dont see how a ring makes a difference in a team sport, and the small sample size of his postseason stats (which arent that bad against every other team than the cardinals) dont come close to outweighing how insanely dominant he is the other 6months of the season.

this is true, but i feel the same about kershaw

assuming they can keep up at even 75% of the past few years, both are locks


Pitchers are tough though. Look at Lincecum. That guy will never make the HOF, but he was lights out for a pretty long stretch.

Yeah fair enough, but still Kershaw had only had 6 great years. is 2 more years the deciding factor? If Kershaw has a bad year this year and cant get it back, eh.

I mean I agree, Kershaw is an absolute freak, but we shall see if that continues.

Kershaw hasn't lost 7+ mph on his fastball.
Lincecum did.
