Not sure on Lincecum because I dont think his small frame will keep up with his arm.
There was an interesting Sports Illustrated article this summer when Lincecum was on the cover talking about how he worked with his father (a Boeing engineer) on developing a delivery that minimized strain (it was also based on that of Sandy Koufax). While Lincecum throws harder than Maddux, they have similar builds. Maddux was listed as 6'0" and 150 lbs on his '87-'89 cards, Lincecum is 5'11" and 170 lbs.
