View Photo »I definitely like San Francisco ... I've seen nothing but positive things as far as my personal experiences. It's where I see myself being for awhile.
Over the last 30 years, 11 pitchers have had an ERA under 2.50 and have had at least 260 strikeouts, and all 11 of those pitchers have won the Cy Young ... That’s where Tim Lincecum (15-7, 2.48 ERA) is, and that’s why by the smallest of margins, he is the best pitcher in the National League this year.
The way Colorado has been playing is just ridiculous ... You don't see that happen very often. And it seems to happen right when we hit our bumps.
The National League Cy Young award is Tim Lincecum's to lose
We set the stage for them in the second inning ... And when you’re facing a guy like Tim Lincecum you can’t give the other team extra outs. Every run is precious.
