Is there anyone that thinks that Cain or Lincecum can either get more then 12 wins?

Sure, why not? Tampa Bay was the worst team in baseball last year at 66-96. Shields and Kazmir won twelve and thirteen respectively.

Steve Carlton won 27 for a team that lost 97 games.

I think they can. I don't expect them too, nor would I bet a lot that they will, but it's possible

I love Lincecum. But that delivery......he's gotta have shoulder issues some day, no?

Wins are incredibly unpredictable, projecting them is next to impossible. The best example I can offer is Ian Snell 06 vs 07. He had 14 wins in 06 with a 4.75 ERA, he dropped his ERA by over a full run with a similar IP total and he didn't even reach a double digit win total. It's possible either could reach 12 wins, but in the end who knows. I'd project their wins in the 9-14 range, like Snell.

EXACTLY! You can reasonably predict ERA, WHIP, IP cap, and K rates; focus on the itme s that can be controlled. Wins is not one of them.
