What do you think of Chad Billingsley?

Slowly but surely the media is beginning to recognize this fellow.

he's a true ace now. he proved it vs. Philly on thursday

gave up 1 ER in the 1st inning, then went 6 more(7 total) only giving up 2 more hits and had 9K's. all against a potent lefty line-up

give this man his due. Cy Young if the Mets keep giving Johan no support.

I said preseason he would start the ASG, hopefully I'm right

    I almost agree with the guy above me but you'd have to throw Webb when healthy and Dan Haren in there with Santana and Lincecum... He is definitely in the same company as those guys right now though.

    I drafted Billingsley in all of my fantasy leagues and was able to pick him up mid way through last year for his awesome finish to the season. I also saw him pitch last year vs the astros when he absolutely carved them up.

    He is a big strong work horse, just the type of pitcher I admire. I love the guy and hope he gets strongly considered for the award, but I do still think Johan is the best pitcher in the league.

    Hes got a very lively arm and has a lot of good potential. As long as he continues to develop he should be quite a stud pitcher for a long time to come.

    Possibly the third best pitcher in the NL, behind Santana and LINCECUM.

    He's the next Pedro Martinez or Randy Johnson (in their prime of course).

    I can't get past the fact he is a dodger....therefore he sucks. If he wants to stop sucking, he needs to become something other than a dodger.
