Tim Lincecum - Yahoo Sports

The season ends and all of a sudden there’s something to write about. I saw this one posted on Lincecum and had to get something out…I am in the the Bay Area after all and this could affect the Dodgers.

So Lincecum gets busted for marijuana possession while speeding near Oregon. Not good. Not good at all.

As one Giants fan told me, this is a black eye for him, and for the Giants organization. He is their young star and now he’s busted.   The Giants also have a minor leaguer who may go to jail for murder…so this should be a fun off-season for the Giants PR group.  Between the Giants PR and the Dodgers PR (with the divorce), there’s going to be a lot to clean up.

You can say it is minor, but it opens that door. The door of whether this a habit forming due to the stress, or has it been there, or will it be a one time deal. Either way, it adds a chink in the armor that won’t go away.

Honestly, I’m sad. Lincecum is the best young pitcher in the game and to see this happen is just sad for the game.

It may be good for the Dodgers – so go Blue…but too bad for the young Cy Young.
