Well, surely it's harder for him to be another Clemens, due to the harsher drug tests.

It's also impossible for him to be a Johnson, since he already pitched too well too young comparing to Johnson, who didn't get to pitch at the equivalent of Lincecum's current level until older than 30.

I don't know why Schilling is in the discussion, since Schilling never had a season as good as Lincecum's.

I don't think we are really capable of predicting the length of careers anyway. Lincecum might just hurt and never pitch again after next start. Who knows?
