No kidding, huh?

Mussina had a legit shot. I think it’ll be a while after Randy, but we’re seeing guys who pitched exclusively in 5-man rotations do it. So it certainly can happen again.

Good point on the 5-man

Glavine made it, Unit’s gonna make it (barring an explosion of his back), Moose could’ve. The Hardball Times 2009 preview has milestone odds (not for this season) – here are some notable odds for hitting 300 – it will be a long while before someone else does it indeed. Keep in mind, THT didn’t include players over 40 (or under 20) ….
Pettitte (14.4%)
Webb (7.5)
CC (10.3)
Billingsley (6.6)
Big Z (5.8)
Whole Camels (4.9)
Johan (5.6)
Buehrle (5.2)
Halladay (7.8)
Oswalt (7.5)
