Tim Lincecum is the best out of those pitchers because he has shown the most maturity of a big league pitcher, his pick off move for a right handed pitcher is fantastic, and his windup is the best because it fools hitters. Phil Highes is a close second, then Homer Bailey

Phil Hughes. He looked real promising in that first start, it's just unfortunate he got injured. Homer Baily is also pretty good. I cant really judge Yovani Gallardo cause he has only one start. As for Tim Lincecum, I think he's overrated. All he has is his fastball and powercurve, and unless he can locate his fastball better, he's gonna start getting creamed.

Nice comparison and I would have to go with Lincecum. I believe he is a winner and every scout that has seen him going back two or three years says he is a "can't miss with a huge upside. With his nasty stuff and a 97-99mph fastball he looks real good to me. School is still out on Hughes and Gallardo and they could make it big time as well.

None of them stand out. That's because they haven't had significant major league experience yet. They all have electric stuff, hence why they're considered top end prospects. This will be an interesting question in about 3-4 years, but right now they're all on the same level.

Wow, tough question. To be honest there's not enough of a track record for us to make judgment on them like that, but if pressed, I would say Hughes, purely based on his last performance (no-hit bid) before he was injured. I would go with Gallardo second, he pitched a very impressive game last night. All should be exciting prospects though. Great question.

Tim Lincecum. He's only gonna get better.
In the next two to three years I choose Lincecum. Let's just hope Sabean doesn't get trade happy and trade him away like, Nathan, Liriano.

I'm a Yankees fan but I have to go with Lincecum, he's shown the most at the major league level.

Lincecum now but Bailey has a lot of potential
