But again, calling on my ancient history, a reputation like Drysdale's or "Sal the Barber" Maglie might be enough to go from potential to proof very quickly. Somebody else said it (EDIT: mojician) but I heartily agree -- we need young studs in the pen like Ramirez, Snow, Capps, Pryor, Moran, et al who get a rep for for no quarter given (how's that for a Mariner slogan). Then the team will start approaching the 90-win level with the hitting and starters we have or have coming.
