We're in the midst of a lull in the baseball world, as the World Series ended two months ago and it's yet another few months before the new season begins.

Having said that, I really do enjoy giving my personal opinions on different aspects of this great game as I have written several articles thus far. Here I will be discussing five pitchers who are currently playing baseball and whom I believe are among the best ones in the sport right now.

So here they are as picked by me. Whether or not you agree with me, I do welcome your thoughts about them.

Coming in at #5 on my list is Zack Greinke, who definitely came away with the greatest season last year as a pitcher. If he can do that again during the next season and the season after that, then he is going to move up on my list for sure. When all is said and done, Greinke is going to go far in this sport, especially seeing what a dangerous pitcher he continues to be.

In the #4 spot is Roy Halladay, known for always being a very reliable pitcher. In the future, Halladay will no doubt be inducted into the Hall of Fame.

Then there's Chris Carpenter. I don't know how he does it, but Carpenter is always spectacular. He came back from missing nearly two seasons last year and showed absolutely no signs of rust. In fact, he may have been better than ever before.

The #2 spot goes to Johan Santana. It doesn't matter that he has not received a Cy Young award since coming on board with the Mets; he consistently contributes to a very good season every year. This is why Santana is at the #2 spot.

And in the #1 spot is Tim Lincecum, who has literally dominated the sport of baseball for two years now. Having an ERA in the twos is outstanding and Lincecum is indeed the top pitcher at getting strikeouts.
