Five years ago, Tim Lincecum was on his way to earning Freshman of the Year honors at the University of Washington.Today, he's getting ready for his first season since winning the Cy Young Award in November of last year.
Nicknamed "The Freak," the 5-foot-11, 174-pound Lincecum isn't resting on his laurels.
"I always want to get better," said Lincecum, who had a league-high 265 strikeouts last season for the Giants. "I come into this year, I'm not just sitting on my ass hoping everything's going to be all right because of last year. I've got to come out here and work and become better. That's what it takes to be a good major-league baseball player."
