Is Clayton Kershaw Worth the Hype?

Did anybody post/see this write-up in the Hardball Times about Clayton Kershaw?

I think I've learned all I need to know about the guy now....the article analyzes his mechanics, stuff, and anything else people need to determine how good a major league he can be.

I found this when browsing over at BTF...basically a write up on Carlos Carrasco that goes into a bunch of mechanical/scouting stuff.

It's a pretty good break down but I think his upside is higher than a #4. The link is below

I have to think he is past any confidence problems he had last year. It may be only one game, but his start on Monday was a great sign. I don't really think that many pitchers have the type of stuff Carrasco has when he is at his best. I would love the numbers to look better, but I'm thinking we'll see him put up numbers more like he had in 06. Anybody else concur?
