Randy Johnson inches closer to 300 wins

Randy Johnson gained career win No. 285 yesterday. So he's 15 away from No. 300 - something he most definitely wants. (Though, no doubt about it, he'd dispute that if you asked him.)

Anyway, I'm wondering - who out there thinks he'll get it? He turns 45 years old in September. He has had three back surgeries, including two in the past two years.

I say No. What about you, Anthony? And everyone else out there?

UPDATE FROM ANTHONY: I don't know, Jim. I'm still thinking about the guy getting killed by the shark and Josh Howard admitting he's a dope-smoker.

I guess i'd say yes, he'll hang around one more season in 2009 to get it. You know what's amazing? How long it took him to become a winning pitcher. He's a total jerk, but for a short period he was a dominating as any pitcher in the history of the game.

Unfortunately for the Yankees, those days were over by the time they acquired him.
