Congrats to Lincecum.
Despite the fact that he can now use this to get a huge salary, it's good to see one of the lower pay scale guys get this kind of recognition.

I saw him beat the cubs... He definitely is the best pitcher in baseball for 2008

I did get to see him pitch. He was impressive. Whoever it was here who said that he has a good off speed pitch was right on the money.

It depends on when he is arbitration eligible. MLB has a very strict salary structure for young players. It isn't a surprise that he is only making 400K
