Jair Jurrjens should be on this list, imo. I'm just assuming he's under the age of 25.

i was mainly going for AL pitchers and Stras, although Stras will be in the NL. But sure, include Lincecum and rank him if you want.

Johnny Cueto is better than half listed on the original post.
Posted on 5/9/09 at 9:33 am to lsu xman
Jon Lester will be better than those 6

Stephen Strasburg has to pitch a professional inning before being on this list. I mean, there are plenty of great college pitchers who never made the jump (most of them went to Rice it seems). I'm not saying he won't be good, but he is so far from the majors compared to those other guys as to not even be comparable.
My list:
King Felix
Price
HUGE, HUGE GAP
Joba
Buchholz
Hughes
Oh, and Zack Greinke is 25.

I'm with Baloo but I like Hughes over Buchholz and maybe even Joba.

Lincecum is the best out of these.

Right now...but you can't tell me that you don't think that Felix has just as much stuff, if not more, just doesn't have Lincecum's level of polish...
Posted on 5/9/09 at 11:59 am to IAmTheHatOnMilesHead
Felix has better stuff but he is not the best pitcher.
Posted on 5/9/09 at 12:00 pm to IAmTheHatOnMilesHead
no one is mentioning porcello, he's 21 and has sick stuff. he will take his knocks for right now, once he gets used to the bigs, dude will be filthy

fwiw, if we wanna talk best stuff for under 25 pitchers Clayton Kershaw has a filthy hook and an upper 90s fastball.

I'm not disagreeing with you pertaining to Lincecum. He has a GREAT feel for the art.
And yeah, Porcello & Kershaw are gonnna be sick. It'll take time though...
