Will Kevin Slowey win 20 games?

[henks]

He's already won 9, and his career high is 12. Can he do it?

[Kingdom]

I'll give him 15

15-17. He won't get there, but congrats to him for getting this far. He's a solid starter.

[Porter]

I think he will win 16-18 games. But he has to pitch like has LAST 7 starts compared to his 1st 6 or so.

[catman]

If he can pitch 8 solid innings everytime out, he has a shot at 18+ this season. He's likely the staff ace right now.
By the way, he's a good young man also.

[Porter]

Catman, Henks or anyone else.

Another Twins fan (Steak to some who have been around for a while) and I had a good 30 minute argument for Slowey's possible bid for an All-Star game. Because of his bad start I think he wouldn't get in despite the 9 wins. He was projecting out if he continues his current hot streak hes on. What were your thoughts on it? I was comparing his overall numbers to Tim Wakefield who has 8 wins. This was before Halladay went to the DL.

[catman]

With Halladay on the DL until after the All-Star game, I think Slowey stands a very good chance to be selected, unless a pitcher is selected from Baltimore or Cleveland as their representative.
Seriously, I think Slowey has a very good opportunity to pitch in the AS game this season. He deserves it, if he keeps up his streak of good starts.
What do you think, Henks?

[Porter]

Adam Jones or Luke Scott is going for Balitmore.

Cleveland might also send a hitter. Not sure who stands out for them.

[henks]

What do you think, Henks?

Yes.

[Kingdom]

Cleveland.. Cliff Lee and Victor Martinez, possibly even Mark DeRosa depending on what they classify him as

[mntwinsfan]

Slowey has a great chance. He does everything right, a lot of ground ball outs and good defense behind him is the key. Slowey is around the plate and doe's not walk many batters. I say 17-19 wins. But he has a chance.
