Enrique Gonzalez might be another candidate before too long.

Seven innings of 1-hit shutout ball vs. the Giants to s t o p the 7-game losing streak.

He's 25. Sorry, I was thinking 25 and younger
If you include other 25 year olds, we'd have to include Carlos Zambrano. If he could cut down the walks a little bit he'd win a Cy Young.

Fantastic list, although Id probably switch Duke for Harden (for whatever reason, Im not a Zach Duke fan).

Middle to back of the rotation starter. The Mets signed him to a major league contract (he defected from Cuba) so I guess they saw something in him.
