My Take
Tim Lincecum is one of baseball's great improbabilities, and I love him for it. At a slight 180 cm, he should never have dominated big-league hitters, yet that whip-like, full-body delivery earned him the nickname "the Freak" and back-to-back Cy Young Awards in 2008 and 2009. Three World Series rings with the Giants seal a career that reads like fiction. What I find irresistible is that he won not through prototypical size but through unorthodox mechanics and sheer nerve. Pitchers like Lincecum, who rewrite the rules of what a body can do, are the reason the sport stays endlessly surprising.
