That's a whale of a point. In terms of ML value, performance vs contract, and high-percentage success x upside ... Paxton is obviously at the point Strasburg, Lincecum, Verlander, etc. were after 10-15 starts.
I don't know what it is about the Seattle blog-o-sphere that soft-pedals this kid so weirdly. If Paxton were a Yankee or Red Sox, he'd be headlining SportsCenter every five days.
