Is CC Sabathia or Felix Hernandez the Next 300-Game Winner?

Libor,
Thanks for the feedback, and for taking time to edit. Good job, and obviously no changes I disagreed with. Thanks also for the praise. Yes, it took some time to research, but that I did without having an article in mind. I just was very curious, and had to find out if there was any merrit to the predictions that Bug Unit is the last. When I found there really wasn't I felt like spreading the news. Obviously, by respons number two it did not reach everyone :-). You can't win them all. Thanks again Øystein Oslo, Norway
