The Quest for 20 2008 edition
Baseball fans it is time to break down the guys going for 20 wins on the season. 119 Games in with 43 games to play some of these guy could potentially have 10 more starts to get them to the magic mark of being a 20 game winner.
In Hoffbl we have, oh crap we have a 20 game winner already
R. Rupe (ATL) 20
With 19 only one guy, should be a shoe in
O. Perez (STL) 19
2 with 18 and Atlanta has 2 in the top 4 spots as does the Cards
B. Smith (ATL) 18
Z. Greinke (STL) 18
With 17
J. Weaver (SEA) 17
B. Sheets (PHI) 17
F. Hernandez (OAK) 17
With 16
J. Santana (SFG) 16
A. Burnett (SEA) 16
O. Perez (ARZ) 16
C. Hamels (PHI) 16
And finally with 15
F. Rodriguez (BAL) 15
M. Buehrle (OAK) 15
J. Verlander (DET) 15
C. Zambrano (BOS) 15
K. Wood (BAL) 15
N. Cornejo (NYM) 15
B. Webb (MIL) 15
