As Charles mentioned, his latest major injury at his age and the career projections based on that takes him out of the top 5. I guess he's still top 10 based on past performance, which at times was other worldly. IMO no question the best pitcher in baseball over the past decade, when he managed to stay healthy which wasn't often enough. You just can't start as late as he did, and spend so much time on the DL, and expect to be a HOF pitcher.
