He reminds me of a young Nolan Ryan.


Thats a bit too hard to say. Ryan is a bad comp because a)Ryan was a lot wilder than Chamberlain, and b)Ryan's repetoire wasnt as diverse as Joba's.

In some ways, he reminds me of a young David Cone.

LOL

Ryan and Cone are in totally different classes, IMO.

I'm not saying he's as good. He just reminded me of him watching him.

Ian Kennedy reminds me of a young Mike Mussina. Doesn't mean he'll be as good.

No. Very good career, but not HOF worthy.

So close. And that's in everything he's done. Almost no-hitters. Almost 20 win seasons. Almost World Series winner. Almost Cy Young winner.

Having said that, I would put him in because of the era he pitched in.

Never will get in. Nothing overly impressive about him. Hasn't accomplished any achievements either
