My sister wanted my name to be Bret Saberhagen.

Well, considering Kershaw, who is going to get his 3000th strike out tonight, will be a shoe in even though he has been crap in post season, I'll say Lincecum should be in too

No, I don't see how 110 wins does it. He wasn't Don Drysdale or Sandy Koufax who had great careers cut short by injuries.

Plus, his hair was kind of long. Even for the 1970s he had long hair for a baseball player.

Always liked Lincecumbut no, he's not a HOFer.

Though the MLB is going to have to start having different qualifications/standards for pitchers. There's a chance we never see another 300 game winner ever again. I know 300 wins isn't the requirement but they are going to have to look at amount of wins differently with modern pitchers.

I mean even a guy like Kershaw is going to be relatively low down on the list of Wins for HOF starting pitchers.

If Saberhagen couldn't make it, I really don't see Lincecum making it
