    Drank the Strasburg Kool-aid
    Took the bait. Got caught in the trap... This is why I dont bet on pitchers with so much hype when they come up. Took Washington on a 3 game loosing streak... against my better knowledge and thought they could beat the run line. Oh well... Other than this I had a pretty ****ing good night!

    Its not stras, he was lights out again - Drink the Kool-Aid down, if he pitches like that you will make plenty of cash even at -200

              No Yall got me all wrong. Not pissed at Strasburg. He pitched a gem. Pissed because I actually took the nationals to win a game. Strasburg will be a great pitcher for a long time to come. I just hope the Braves get him when the nats cant afford him anymore

                then why is the title "drank the strasburg koolaid".

                very misleading title.

                  Because The line was -200 only because of him. Should have known that the nats couldnt give him the run support he needs. Maybe I should have titled it "drank the Nationals Kool-aid even with Strasburg going". Damn didnt know there were so many Nationals fans I would piss off.

                          It wasnt Strasburghs fault... The team didnt score.

                                      Can't believe he's pitching like this. Waiting for the bad game (it will come at some point) to see how he handles it.

                                        They need to get this guy some run support when he's on the mound.

                                          HE needs offense, but playing for the Nats.... expect a lot of games like this with him on the mound.
