Cole Hamels is ready

[hybrid]

However, one thing that scares me: nobody has any scouting on this kid. 35 IP over 2 years will do that to you- what happens once teams have a book on Cole?

Trust me, it wouldn't make that much of a difference. He was an elite pitching prospect before he kept getting hurt, because he is just that good. Of course over the long run it will be an adjustment period in the MLB, but it is like that will all young pitchers.
