I said he could be starting to tail off. It made no sense for the Yankees to invest 7-8 years in a pitcher that's 32. Hamels and Oswalt don't strike fear into batters the way Halladay or Lee do. Both haven't been that great since '08. Although Hamels could still be coming into his own as he's only been in the league 5 seasons. I don't think there is a real big secret to Clemens or Pettitte. The 'roids are really what kept Clemens playing, and Pettitte has been able to adjust his mechanics to remain a decent pitcher since coming off them.
